“In Korea is what I do is I watch the playback of each take with all of the actors and spend a lot of time discussing each take. Also, I use the process we call auto-assembly because I storyboard my entire film right at the beginning, even before pre-production ever begins, so my vision is already laid out on the storyboard for everybody to share. It enables the on-set assembly person, as we call them, to cut together each take into a sequence. This enables a director to review the take within the context of the sequence of the scene.” PersonsUseTogetherFilmActorsProcessVisionWatchesCuttingShareSceneDirectorsProductionsReviewsSequenceKoreaAssemblyDiscussing Author:Park Chan-wook
“When I'm writing something, if it gets too serious, I just can't bear it, so I take a step back and take the overall scene in and vent the air a little bit.” IfsWritingLittlesBitsStepsAirSeriousBearsSceneLittle Bit Author:Park Chan-wook
“Actually, I can't stand watching violent scenes in films; I avoid watching horror films. I don't tend to watch action films mainly because I find them boring, but I watch the films of David Cronenberg and Martin Scorsese, usually in a state close to having a heart attack. I'm a complete coward. I make violent films as a result of my sensitivity to violence - in other words, my fear of violence.” HeartI CanStatesActionFilmResultsWatchesViolenceHorrorSceneBoringViolentCowardSensitivityHorror FilmHeart AttackAction FilmsScorseseRelay RacesViolent Films Author:Park Chan-wook
