Are you looking for direction on what to get dad for Father's Day? Well, you're in luck!
Emmy Award-nominated cinematographer and director Nelson Cragg is here to lend his expertise. You may know Nelson from his work on Amazon's Them or Netflix's Ratched and a bunch of other iconic shows, but did you know he's also a pro at giving gifts?
"My best advice for picking Father's Day gifts would be to think about something that will create a special memory," the executive producer revealed to E!. "Maybe it's a simple camera that will help capture magical moments of the family. And most guys love gadgets and gear!"
In addition to flying all over the world to help create buzzworthy shows, he also uses his platform to shine a light on AAPI issues and speak about diversity in the film industry. But his greatest role is being a dad!
"My favorite part of father's day in spending time with my family in Los Angeles, but my work as a director often takes me out of town," Nelson explained. "So these are some of the things that help me capture memories of my son, and also a few things that I can't leave home without!"
