Biography

Born in 1945, Wong Chung-Piu started his photography work in dark rooms and commercials. He worked at Radio Television Hong Kong, TVB, and Jiashi; he joined the TVB film team in 1975. In the 1980s and 1990s, he won many Academy Awards, Golden Horse Award for Best Photography. When the New Wave of Film was born in the 1970s, most of the focus was on a group of young directors, but one of the most important figures among them was missed - photographer Wong Chung-Piu. He dared to innovate, leaving a creative and distinctive image for the New Wave era films. Through continuous hard work, extensive on-site experience, observation and study, he not only developed excellent techniques, but also created an implicit style that seamlessly combines narrative and images.
