“I take bits and pieces from every director. I'd say Sylvain [White] and Nimrod [Antal]. They were more about teaching me lens sizes and depth of field and how to move the camera and lighting. I do want to direct and I didn't go to film school, so having a director that are very much hands on that way and looking to let me learn, that is a key factor.” WayWantHandsSchoolFilmMovingBitsWhitePiecesTeachingFieldsKeysDirectorsDirectLet MeCamerasDepthSizeFactorsLensesLightingFilm SchoolBits And PiecesDepth Of Field Author:Columbus Short
“When I'm acting, I have zero control, and it's the scariest thing anyone can do in that field because, you know, your face is always the one that's out there in front of the camera, and any number of things can happen to you once you've done your work.

“Under examination by the camera, a human body becomes for its inhabitant a field of betrayal more than a ground of communication, and the camera's further power is manifested as it documents the individual's self-conscious efforts to control the body each time it is conscious of the camera's attention to it.” HumansSelfBodyIndividualEffortAttentionFieldsCommunicationConsciousCamerasBetrayalDocumentsHuman BodyExaminationSelf Conscious Book:Cities of Words: Pedagogical Letters on a Register of the Moral Life Source: Cities of Words: Pedagogical Letters on a Register of the Moral Life
