“I love Kimberly Peirce. Incredibly intense is a good way of describing her. Brutally honest. Really sharp. She's a director for actors. That's what she's best at, sitting down with an actor and just getting to the heart of what a scene is. And getting to the heart of not just what the scene is and the character is, but what you are, and how to build that bridge between the "me" and the character, and those emotions.” WayHeartCharacterActorsEmotionHonestSceneDirectorsSittingIntenseBridgesDescribingGood WaySitting DownBrutally Honest Author:Joseph Gordon-Levitt
“There is a sort of creative purity in an independent film, in the passion of the director, the passion of the crew. They're not getting a whole lot of money, so you know they are not there because they want to get rich. Instead, they are there because they want to make a movie. In the bigger films, I remember when I used to do those, it's just a job for a lot of people, so there is less of an intense energy devoted to the whole project.” PeopleKnowsWantWholeJobsRememberFilmUsedPassionEnergyCreativeRichDirectorsProjectsBiggerIndependentIntensePurityDevotedLots Of MoneyCrewRemember WhenGet RichIndependent FilmPassion And Purity Author:Amy Irving

“David Fincher is probably the best comprehensive director in terms of being a manger of a process that must drive forward. He has such confident command of cinema language and visual language and script and performance. He knows more about f-stops than any cameraman, he knows more about lighting than any gaffer, he is a wonderful writer, and he can give you a good line reading. Under pressure, he is the kind of guy who you will just dive in with and trust and follow because his vision is so intense.” KnowsGivingKindGuyReadingLanguageProcessTermLinesVisionWonderfulDirectorsPerformancesPressureScriptsIntenseCommandCinemaVisualsComprehensiveLightingUnder PressureCameraman Author:Edward Norton
“When I'm in the studio, I write the music, I play the different instruments, I produce it, I arrange it, and it's a self-indulgent exercise. It's the way I make my music. And when I'm acting, I get to leave myself behind, which is a relief. I get to collaborate with a director; I respect the director's medium and all the actors and actresses. So at the end of the day, it's about a character and it's about a director's vision. It's a really good balance for being so intense and alone in my personal process of making music.” WayWritingDifferentEndsSelfPlayCharacterActorsProcessActingBehindsVisionProduceBalanceExerciseDirectorsInstrumentsStudiosActressesIntenseMediumsReliefThe End Of The DaySelf IndulgentActors And Actresses Author:Lenny Kravitz
“Noah Baumbach does more takes than any director I've ever worked with. He runs a very quiet set and he runs a very hard working set. He has such an intense level of dedication to what's happening that he cultivates a group of people around him who have an equal level of dedication. Nobody asks, "When is lunch?" That's just not part of our sets. It's complete immersion. He has a 'no cell phone' rule. Nobody checks their cell phone. Nobody reads on set. It's like, "If you're there, you're there. If you're not on board with that, don't work on this movie."” PeopleIfsDoeHardRunningAsksLevelsGroupsHard WorkQuietDirectorsEqualHappeningsPhonesIntenseChecksCellsBoardsLunchDedicationCell PhoneImmersion Author:Greta Gerwig
“I think it's very important to recognize talent in all facets of filmmaking.
