“TV is a different animal. It's not a club set. As you said, you do short sets on TV - about five minutes. So you have to get that rhythm down and also be aware of the camera so you're connecting with the viewers at home as well as the studio audience. It's a different muscle to develop.” WellsSaidDifferentHomeAnimalAudienceFiveMinutesTvsDown AndCamerasClubsStudiosRhythmMusclesViewersConnectingFive MinutesDifferent Animals Author:Ted Alexandro
“My mom had bought this camera to take classes herself and I remember working with her on it, understanding how the stop-motion [worked], having a high shutter speed and things like that. Long before I picked it up myself, I remember being on a slide at a country club going into the water and wanting my mother to put in on a high shutter speed so she could catch me on the slide without it being blurred. I remember having fun with her: "Let me go on the slide and you'll catch me in motion!" Those are some of the little moments in my artistic making.” LittlesLongCountryMomentsRememberMotherFunUnderstandingWaterClassMomGoes OnLet MeCamerasClubsMy MomSpeedArtisticHaving FunSlidesLet Me GoShuttersCatch MeCountry ClubsLittle Moments Author:Jeff Vespa

“We worked six days a week [on the The Breakfast Club], so you have one day off. So on that Saturday night, it's not like we could all go out and have a drink because Molly [Ringwald ] and Michael [Hall] weren't old enough. And Ally [Sheedy] pretty much kept to herself. So Emilio and I, every Saturday night, would go into Chicago because we were shooting outside of Chicago in Des Plaines. It's so funny, because even though we might be adversaries in the film, we certainly weren't off-camera.

“The first picture of his I ever saw was during a lecture at the Rhyl camera club. I was 16 and the speaker was Emrys Jones. He projected the picture upside down.
