Biografia
A native of Argentina and of Italian descent, Macat began his career at age19, working his way up the ranks under such distinguished veterans as Mario Tosi and Academy Award®-winning cinematographers John Alcott and Chris Menges. After studying filmmaking at UCLA, at the age of 26, Macat became a camera operator collaborating exclusively with Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky on four films, including "Runaway Train," "Shy People" and "Tango & Cash." Macat's early cinematography work included numerous music videos and concerts for performers such as Peter Gabriel, Melissa Etheridge, Phil Collins, Hall & Oats, Van Halen and Alanis Morrisette.
Julio Macat's first film was the huge box-office hit "Home Alone." He then went on to photograph "Home Alone II," "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," "The Nutty Professor," "The Wedding Planner," "Cats & Dogs," "Bringing Down the House" and "Wedding Crashers," all of which opened at the #1 box office position in the U.S. The total domestic box office receipts of the films he has photographed is $1.6 billion.
Macat's extensive credits include the features "So, I Married an Axe Murderer"; "My Fellow Americans"; the remake of "Miracle on 34th Street"; "Because I Said So" and "Smother," both with Diane Keaton; and the action picture "Ballistic: Ecks Vs. Sever."
In moving from comedy to more dramatic work, Macat was asked by Antonio Banderas to photograph his directorial debut, "Crazy in Alabama," with Melanie Griffith; and by Adam Shankman to film his coming-of-age drama "A Walk to Remember." Macat also collaborated with Shankman on "The Wedding Planner" and "Bringing Down the House." Macat has worked with numerous directors on their feature film debuts, among them Jason Moore, Tom Shadyac, Raja Gosnell and Lawrence Guterman.
He also photographed the films "Moonlight and Valentino," "Only the Lonely" and the Morgan Freeman heist drama "The Code," directed by Mimi Leder. "Horrible Bosses 2" is his latest effort, set for a November 2014 release.
As a visual consultant for Disney Studios he collaborated on the animated features "Wreck it Ralph" and "Winnie the Pooh." He has photographed commercials in Europe, South America, Mexico, South Africa and extensively in the U.S., and has also directed many second units for feature films and commercials.
Macat is a member of the American Society of Cinematographers. He is fluent in Spanish, Italian and French.
