“I don't use any techniques; I'm not trained to be an actor. I just enjoy working in films. It's more instinctive rather than anything else. I don't do the calculated rehearsed kind of approach, and I hope that I can continue that because I believe that instinct is much stronger and greater when you are performing on camera.” BelieveKindI CanUseFilmActorsI BelieveEnjoyGreaterApproachStrongerCamerasInstinctTechniquePerforming Author:Amitabh Bachchan
“(1) The more thoroughly a photographer explores his subject with the camera (i.e., the more pictures he makes), the more he sees and the better his chance of getting good results.

“Even if people are all from the same place, there can be very, very different approaches. It's one of the things I'm fascinated by. It's why I like directing.

“3D needs a trained eye. It can't be done by everybody. People who just do 3D just for the sake of commercializing their movie another five or six percent and they don't know really how to do it, they should care how to do it better by bringing other directors and collaborators into their lives to help teach and instruct how you really make a 3D movie because it's not just like putting a new lens on a camera and forgetting it. It takes a lot of very careful consideration. It will change your approach to where you put the cameras.

“My parents, though very loving, were not what one would ever describe as outgoing and therefore when I was young I was quite shy and socially awkward. Having a camera changed all that.

“One thing that is very different technically is that you don't get a lot of coverage in television. Not like you do on a film. I know we don't have time for separate set-ups, so I will design a scene where I'm hiding multiple cameras within that set-up. That way, if I don't have time to do five set-ups, I can do four cameras in one set-up. It's a different kind of approach for that. For the most part, a lot of television, in a visual sense, lacks time for the atmosphere and putting you in a place.” IfsKnowsWayKindI CanDifferentFilmCan DoFiveFourOne ThingDesignTelevisionLike YouSceneApproachCamerasAtmosphereVisualsHidingDifferent KindsMultipleCoverage Author:Len Wiseman

“The approach to that movie wasn't, 'Lets make this movie about Amsterdam and maple syrup.' The concept was, 'Lets go to Amsterdam. Amsterdam is fun.' So we flew to Amsterdam with our cameras and we saw what happened and then we got back and we sat down and we said, 'What's the movie here.' That's when we realized that the movie was 'The Maple Syrup Saga'.” SaidFunSawsHappenedLetting GoApproachConceptsDown AndCamerasSatFlewSagaAmsterdamMapleSyrupMaple Syrup Author:Casey Neistat
“That shot in "Into the Inferno" somehow popped up while my editor and I were viewing the footage. I immediately said, "That looks like the opening shot because the camera approaches the action very slowly and we have enough time to insert some of the main credits into it." So it was a practical choice. At the same time, you see these tiny figures standing at the rim of something, and all of a sudden, the camera rises further and you find yourself looking straight down into an inferno.” LooksSaidEnoughActionChoicesFiguresApproachShotsStandingCamerasCreditTinyPracticalsOpeningFinding YourselfEditorsEnough TimeInfernoRimsInsert Author:Werner Herzog
“We needed to do "Community Project" to feel comfortable doing our own thing, and then "That's It That's All" was this experiment with camera technology and shooting snowboarding a little differently. "Art of Flight" was that dream of "That's it That's All" realized. Then we didn't want to make an "Art of Flight 2," so we stepped back and tried to take a different approach to create a more multi-faceted film.

People will always be waiting at a particular finish line: journalists with their cameras, impatient crowds eager to call the race, astounded to see the scientists approach, pass the mark, and keep running.

“More and more are turning to photography as a medium of expression as well as communication. The leavening of aesthetic approaches continues. While it is too soon to define the characteristic of the photographic style today, one common denominator, rooted in tradition, seems in the ascendancy. The direct use of the camera for what it can do best, and that is the revelation, interpretation, and discovery of the world of man and of nature. The greatest challenge to the photographer is to express the inner significance through the outward form.” MenWorldWellsUseSeemsTodayFormCan DoChallengesCommonStyleExpressionCommunicationApproachPhotographyDiscoveryTraditionDirectCamerasPhotographerMediumsCharacteristicsRevelationsSignificanceInterpretationAestheticRootedCommon DenominatorAscendancy Author:Beaumont Newhall
