“I started doing commercials in 2008 right after we released Death Race, and the reason was that I spent two years prepping Death Race and building all these custom rigs to shoot cars in the most dynamic and exciting way.” WayYearsTwoReasonRaceCarBuildingExcitingTwo YearsCustomsRigsDeath Race Author:Paul W.

“I love Death Race, it's one of my favorite films. I thought, "You know what? All that two years worth of work is now gong to be wasted because I'm highly unlikely to direct another car movie straight away," and I felt at that point there was no one who was kind of better at shooting cars, so I thought rather than let it go to waste I would explore the idea of doing commercials, and that's what I did.” KnowsYearsKindTwoIdeasFilmFeltRaceCarWasteDirectMy FavoriteShootingTwo YearsUnlikelyLet It GoLove DeathGongsDeath Race Author:Paul W.

“I like alternating commercials with movies, because it keeps the pace up. You can't slack on a commercial. You need to go fast. That's a terrific piece of action, I think if that was scheduled for a movie, you'd put that in for two or three days worth of work.” IfsThinkingNeedsTwoActionThreePiecesPaceTerrific Author:Paul W.

“I've so got my plate full with Resident Evil and then The Three Musketeers, I'm just not involved with Castlevania. I'm not personally involved with the movie at all. I'm not producing that.

“I never really thought I went away because I've written all of the movies and I'm produced them all and certainly provided services about and beyond the average producer on two and three. I was on set most of the films and called action and cut a lot of times and did all that good stuff.” TwoActionFilmThreeStuffCuttingWrittenAverageProducers Author:Paul W. S. Anderson
“I had the opportunity to work with Aliens and Predators when Resident Evil 2 was being made and it was for two different studios. It was for Fox and Sony. They don't care about one another. They just want their movies. So it was very difficult to delay one and... So I had to make a very painful decision to kind of step away from directing the second movie and with the third movie it was the same.” WantKindMadeTwoDifferentCareEvilOpportunityDifficultDecisionStepsThirdsPainfulStudiosDon't CareAliensFoxesDelayPredatorResidentsSonyResident Evil Author:Paul W.

“You really feel like you're on the cutting edge and you know you are because all the camera equipment you take for granted doesn't exist for 3-D. So all the cranes with all the stabilized heads, they don't work on 3-D because they're all built for lightweight camera packages. As soon as you kind of put two cameras together and all the other crap that they need and the cabling to go back to the computers, we've literally, the cranes on these movies, they break after a couple of days.” KnowsNeedsFeelsKindTwoTogetherBreakCuttingLike YouCoupleComputerBuiltCamerasEdgesGrantedCrapEquipmentPackagesCutting EdgeCranes Author:Paul W.
