“Carl Rinsch has a good balance between the visual and the drama and action, so I thought if he's going to direct, we can make a new, epic film. My fear was gone when I met him.” IfsActionFilmGoneBalanceDramaMetsDirectVisualsEpic Author:Hiroyuki Sanada
“There's a level where the themes of a film are very relevant to me and also the idea of finding out how relevant one genre is to another. I think that westerns and samurai films and superhero films have a lot in common. It's just that the scale of the visuals in tentpole films can sometimes overwhelm the drama.” ThinkingIdeasSometimesFilmLevelsCommonDramaFindingsScalesGenreThemeVisualsRelevantSuperheroSamuraiGenre Is Author:James Mangold
“The decisive moment, the popular Henri Cartier-Bresson approach to photography in which a scene is stopped and depicted at a certain point of high visual drama, is now possible to achieve at any time. One's photographs, years later, may be retroactively rephotographed by repositioning the photographer or the subject of the photograph, or by adding elements that were never there before but now are made to exist concurrently in a newly elastic sense of space and time.” YearsMayMadeMomentsCertainSpaceAchieveSubjectsDramaSceneElementsApproachPhotographyPhotographerPhotographVisualsTime And SpaceDecisive MomentsCartierHenri Cartier Bresson Book:In our own image: the coming revolution in photography : how computer technology is changing our view of the world Source: In our own image: the coming revolution in photography : how computer technology is changing our view of the world
“I went to an arts school as a kid. We had to take dance every other day, along with drama, music and visual arts. However, wearing black tights was something I dreaded... and still have nightmares about it to this day. I think I was a pretty good dancer. I suppose that training helped me land parts in musicals... or has just given me nightmares!” ThinkingArtStillsKidsSchoolGivenBlackLandDramaTrainingVisualsDancerNightmareThis DayArt SchoolVisual ArtTightsWearing Black Author:Jake Epstein
“I come from a little bit of a theatrical background. I started that way. I don't have a tremendous body of work or anything, but I went to drama school. And so, to get to do a piece where the characters get to talk a lot, and that isn't just about the spectacle or the set piece, or is simply visual or movement based. It was really wonderful for me, and juicy and exciting.” WayLittlesCharacterBodySchoolBitsPiecesWonderfulMovementDramaLittle BitExcitingBackgroundsVisualsTheatricalJuicy Author:Bryce Dallas Howard
“My visual landscape as a child was the inside of a lot of these old churches. And the Baroque drama of the things was what I was first engaging with artwise. I'm much more attracted to the aesthetic of religious iconography than the actual religious side. The passion and the blood and the violence and the gaudy side of it I find really fascinating.” FirstsChildrenPassionSidesChurchReligiousViolenceBloodDramaLandscapeVisualsFascinatingAestheticEngagingBaroqueGaudyIconographyOld Churches Author:Florence Welch
“Art is humanity's most essential, most universal language. It is not a frill, but a necessary part of communication. The quality of civilization can be measured through its music, dance, drama, architecture, visual art and literature. We must give our children knowledge and understanding of civilization's most profound works.” GivingChildrenArtHumanityLiteratureLanguageUnderstandingQualityCommunicationCivilizationDramaEssentialsArt IsUniversalOur ChildrenProfoundArchitectureVisualsVisual ArtUniversal LanguageKnowledge And UnderstandingFrills Author:Ernest L.
