“Any director will tell you, no matter how big his budget, that it's always the budget and the day count.” Quote by Michael Sucsy
“When I first started working on movies as a production assistant, we were shooting 65, 75, 85 days. I mean, granted some of those things were "Godzilla," "Deep Impact," and those kinds of things, but these days it's like 30-35 days or 40-45 days and you just feel like you're humping trying to get everything done. It's like "Move on, move on, move on!" That's not the way to get the best performances or the most interesting shots. You have to constantly balance schedule and quality of work. For me, that's the biggest thing.” WayFeelsTryingFirstsKindMeanDoneMovingInterestingQualityLike YouBalanceShotsPerformancesImpactProductionsGrantedShootingThese DaysSchedulesMost InterestingAssistantsBest PerformanceGodzillaQuality WorkDeep Impact Author:Michael Sucsy

I can't just go and see them any time I want because when I'm free, they may not be free, but I definitely wouldn't change it, ever.
