“Once you change the technology - from a film camera to a video camera, or from an 8-mm camera to 16 mm - you change completely the content. With 8 mm, a leaf on a tree will be made up of maybe four grains. So it's very impressionistic, almost like Seurat. If you switch to 16 mm, the technology gives you hundreds of grains on that leaf.” IfsGivingMadeFilmTechnologyFourTreeCamerasVideoGrainLeafsVideo Cameras Author:Jonas Mekas

“You have to remain strong. That's the kind of filmmaker I want to encourage. Orson Welles was the one who said, you know, you can learn anything you need to know about filmmaking- that's camera, sound, celluloid, video at this point- in four hours.

If you feel you have something to say, you'll find that way to get it said, on film, and not let anyone or anything chip away at that or tarnish it, because it's something special and precious.” IfsKnowsWayWantNeedsFeelsKindSaidFilmStrongSoundHoursFourSpecialCamerasWhat You WantVideoFilmmakerFilmmakingChipsSomething SpecialCelluloid Author:Martin Scorsese
“What I think about is what people spend their time on this planet doing. So No.1 is sleep, No.2 is work, and No.3 is sight, sound, and motion video consumption. Basically, four to five hours a day is what Americans spend consuming video.” PeopleThinkingSoundHoursSleepFiveFourPlanetsSightVideoConsumptionConsuming Author:Jason Kilar
