“Most people travel with a good book, but I also keep my agenda with me; I'll flip through the pages and take a few moments to organize my life a little - I rarely get the time to do this normally.” PeopleLittlesBookMomentsPagesAgendasOrganizeGood BookFlip Author:Carolina Herrera
“I can pick up a screenplay and flip through the pages. If all I see is dialog, dialog, dialog, I won't even read it. I don't care how good the dialog is - it's a moving picture. It has to move all the time... It's not the stage. A movie audience doesn't have the patience to sit and learn a lesson. Their eyes need to be dazzled. The writer is the most important element in the entire film because if it ain't on the page it ain't going to be on the screen.” IfsNeedsI CanImportantEyeCareFilmMovingAudienceStageLessonsElementsPagesPicksDon't CareScreensI Don't CareFlipScreenplaysLearning Lessons Author:Robert Evans

“My feeling is that it's one of the very few things that comics can do that you really can't do in any other medium. I feel like the reader accepts all of these styles, and after a certain point you can flip the pages and see a character rendered very differently than you saw on an earlier page, and it's not jarring. It suggests things that you can't suggest just in the writing or in the plotting.” FeelsWritingCharacterFeelingsCertainCan DoAcceptingSawsStyleReaderPagesMediumsFlip Author:Daniel Clowes
“All societies have these cases. There are many, many crime cases that remain famous from the times of the Romans. The Bible is full of crime stories. You can almost flip to a page.

“The interview process tests not what the applicant knows, but how well they can process tricky questions: If you wanted to figure out how many times on average you would have to flip the pages of the Manhattan phone book to find a specific name, how would you approach the problem?

“Pages were always supposed to be off-camera - we were supposed to be invisible. But I had a moment where I saw a kid who was ready to flip himself out of the balcony, so I ran down and grabbed him and put him back in his seat. I remember the stage manager taking me aside and saying, "Can you please never do that again? I know you were saving his life, but we have you in the shot."” KnowsMomentsKidsRememberSawsStageReadyPleasePagesShotsDown AndCamerasInvisibleSavingManagersSupposed To BeRanSeatsFlipBalconiesStage Managers Author:Anne Sweeney
“In comics the reader is in complete control of the experience. They can read it at their own pace, and if there's a piece of dialogue that seems to echo something a few pages back, they can flip back and check it out, whereas the audience for a film is being dragged through the experience at the speed of 24 frames per second.” IfsSeemsFilmAudiencePiecesReaderPagesSpeedChecksDialoguePaceEchoesFlip Author:Alan Moore
