“I'm happy to have a physical part in 'High Tension,' in 'Hereafter,' and in a lot of French movies and Belgian movies. But its not by chance directors choose me for physical parts. I like to do that. I like to tell a story also with the body. It's important, because you can tell a lot of things.” ImportantStoriesBodyChanceDirectorsTensionHereafterBelgiansChoose MeFrench Movies Author:Cecile de France
“Spoilers are cowardly. They're just people who want to anesthetize themselves against the tension and the experience that the director and the artist have set up. If you go in there knowing what's going to happen, it's like reading the last page of the book.

Sometimes, you don't realize that something is actually a sidetrack for the story, or it takes the tension out of a scene.” IdeasSometimesStoriesMovingRealizingCuttingProgressSceneDirectorsMoving ForwardTension Author:Catherine Hardwicke
“One of the good things is the relationship between director and editor used to be more contentious. Studios used to leave directors alone more during the post production process and now they're clamoring to get in. So, the director and the editor end up teaming up sort of against the studio to fight what they're doing and you lose the creative tension that you used to have between an editor and a director.” EndsUsedFightingProcessLosesCreativeDirectorsGood ThingsProductionsStudiosUsed To BePostsTensionEditorsContentiousPost ProductionCreative TensionTeaming Up Author:Michael Sucsy
“I have my set rigged with the biggest sound system possible and have a mini jack for my iPod attached to my director's chair. I find playing music is a very direct way to communicate with actors and the crew, especially those crew members who are on the periphery of the set. I like dancing on set too, it's a good way to release tension.” WayActorsSoundDirectorsMembersMusic IsDirectDancingCommunicateReleaseTensionChairsCrewGood WayPlaying MusicIpodsRiggedPeripherySound Systems Author:Alfonso Cuaron
