“Commercials are also any opportunity to meet new crew and work with new kind of rigs. You can explore working with different people without having to make the full commitment of having to do an entire feature film with them and see whether you like them. Also it's great for testing out new equipment, like on the last spot we just did, I used a lot of drone technology, really cutting edge drone stuff, more than I've ever done before, and it worked out really really well.” PeopleWellsKindDifferentDoneLastsFilmUsedOpportunityStuffTechnologyCuttingCommitmentEdgesSpotsFeaturesCrewEquipmentTestingDifferent PeoplesDronesCutting EdgeRigs Author:Paul W.

“Interestingly it's when you come to the comedy, that's where a lot of the discussion is. It's like ten people sitting around talking about what is funny. "Is that funny? Is that funnier than that? Is this slightly funnier than this?" I guess that's what it's like when you're making a comedy movie as well, you just have to sit around talking seriously about the nature of comedy.” PeopleWellsTalkingComedyTenSittingDiscussionSitting AroundComedy Movie Author:Paul W.

“3D is very exciting. I love it. I'm a complete convert. Everything for me, from now on, is 3D. I'm completely convinced it's the future of home entertainment, as well as cinema entertainment. I think it's a paradigm shift, in terms of cinema, and those things don't happen very often. The introduction of sound, the introduction of color photography and now 3D have been the big shifts. They happen once every 40 or 50 years, so it's very exciting to be a filmmaker, working while one of them is happening.” ThinkingYearsWellsHas BeensHomeBigsHappensSoundTermColorPhotographyHappeningsExcitingEntertainmentConvincedCinemaFilmmakerIntroductionParadigmParadigm ShiftColor Photography Author:Paul W.

“There's something very terrifying about that and very primal about it. It's my belief that what horror does for people is that it provides that primal fear that, when we were wild hunter-gatherers, we had as part of our natural lives because maybe something was trying to hunt and gather you as well. We don't have that anymore in life and that's one of the things that horror films and action films provide for us.” PeopleTryingWellsDoeActionFilmBeliefNaturalHorrorHuntersHuntsPrimalHorror FilmAction FilmsNatural LifeHunter GatherersPrimal Fear Author:Paul W.

“I think, as a filmmaker, my style of filmmaking is very well-suited to 3-D anyway, so it's not like I'm having to change a huge amount of the way I shoot to work in 3-D. I think you could probably dimensionalize some of my movies and they would make very good 3-D films.” ThinkingWayWellsFilmStyleHugeAmountVery GoodFilmmakerFilmmaking Author:Paul W. S. Anderson
