“As actors, we need public relations to campaign for our next possible role, and any media promoting our work seems positive in nature; but whether in theater or on a film set, a bad unprofessional photograph at the wrong angle may not be as flattering to some actors, and may be considered a harmful exposure.” NeedsMaySeemsFilmNextActorsRolesMediaRelationTheaterPhotographCampaignsAngleExposurePromotingFlatteringPublic RelationsFilm Set Author:Carson Grant

“So much of the writing is not conscious, in the sense that it's not calculated. I remember in film school we had so many studies with big fancy words where you could dissect a movie and make charts of all of the characters' complicated inner relations and themes and what does this mean? And it's overwhelming as a student. It's great for a student, but as a writer, it's paralyzing.” WritingMeanDoeCharacterBigsSchoolRememberFilmStudyStudentsConsciousRelationComplicatedFancyThemeOverwhelmingFilm School Author:Don Hertzfeldt
“To evoke the classic period of Italian cinema in a little film seemed like a great, fun thing to do. I had relations to that period. I had known Fellini and I had known Antonioni.

You bring yourself to that mythical cinema.” LittlesMadeFilmFunKnownPeriodsRelationStudiosCinemaThings To DoClassicItalianWorthwhileLike SomethingEvokeDoing YouFun Things Author:Wim Wenders
“The secret of my success is my mother, who was from Dublin. All my relations are in Dublin or in the west, or as I found out, we went to Rostrevor in Northern Ireland to film and I got out, while they changed cars around, and this man said to me: "You know you have cousins in this town? And they're coming down to see you..." And so they did. I'm sorry we didn't go to a lot more places, so that I could find a lot more cousins. So, that was good. It's entirely because my father was also brought up in Dublin.

“I'm the most experienced cinematographer in this medium, so there's no point in having that extra conversation in the middle of the loop. You're making the film in relation to what's happening now, and you can't really affect what's happening now. It's not like you're in control of anything in front of the camera. If you're calling yourself the director and you're not the cinematographer, I think you're kidding yourself.” IfsThinkingFilmMiddleFrontsLike YouCallingDirectorsConversationHappeningsRelationCamerasMediumsExtrasNo PointLoopsCinematographersKidding Yourself Author:David Douglas

“It's definitely a unique situation that we're in. And, yeah, it is difficult not having our ringleader here with us to talk about the film [the Waitress], not having our main person here.

“Suddenly, after years of television being the poor relation and film being everything, it now feels like film is a conjuring trick. It's like, "Oh, my god, how are you going to do that in 90 minutes, as opposed to eight hours?! I've got so little time to do this!" It becomes an art form, in itself. Doing both helps you do each one.” FeelsYearsLittlesArtHelpingFilmFormHoursPoorMinutesTelevisionRelationEightTricksLittle TimeConjuring Author:Steven Knight
“There's always been this feedback between comics and films.
