“I have to phrase this perfectly: I'm just not convinced that the attention we give to creating what we think of as a character isn't actually quite often the means by which an actor overcomes his own terror of standing there onstage and creating a mask to hide behind.” ThinkingGivingMeanCharacterActorsBehindsAttentionCreatingStandingOvercomingTerrorConvincedPhrasesMaskStanding There Author:Stephen Dillane
“From where I sit I see the digital cinema creating sloppiness on the part of filmmakers because they know if they really get in trouble they can fix it later. So they don't pay that much attention, and of course it costs a lot of money.” IfsKnowsCoursesPayAttentionTroubleCostCreatingCinemaFilmmakerDigitalLots Of MoneySloppiness Author:Robert Zemeckis
“I'm a natural behind the camera... My attentions are more toward behind the scenes, more toward creating, producing, and directing what's going on here...

“The other thing is that it's really hard to separate out the harassment from everything we do. When we started creating Tropes, we were hyper-aware of the intense scrutiny, the intense harassment, and the intense pressure to do something meaningful given the attention both positive and negative. That's carried over in terms of making sure that I produce the best work that I can, that's the most accurate, the most sensitive and engaged.” I CanHardGivenTermAttentionProduceCreatingNegativePressureMeaningfulIntenseSensitiveEngagedAccurateBest WorkScrutinyHarassmentHyperTropes Author:Anita Sarkeesian
“We're creating a TV show of Scrooge, starring Jamie Farr, with Buddy Hackett as Scrooge. We're shooting in this Victorian set for weeks, and Hackett is pissed all the time, angry that he's not the center of attention, and finally we get to the scene where we've gotta shoot him at the window, saying, "Go get my boots," or whatever. The set is stocked with Victorian extras and little children in Oliver kind of outfits, and the director says, "All right, Bud - just give it whatever you want." And Hackett goes off on a rant.

“I just always wanted a platform. In the past, I always dreamed of having a following and a fan base - you know, a group of people just listening and paying attention to what I was making. I think the reality kicked in that you have to make a living so that you have enough time to keep creating, you know? 'Cause if you're not making a living at this, then you're making a living working another job, and if you're working another job, you're spending all your time doing that and can't put enough time into the music.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsEnoughRealityWantedJobsPastCausesAttentionGroupsFansListeningCreatingFollowingSpendingPay AttentionPlatformsEnough TimeJust ListenMaking A Living Author:G-Eazy
