“My own eyes are no more than scouts on a preliminary search, for the camera's eye may entirely change my idea, even switch me to different subject matter. So I start out with my mind as free from image as the silver film on which I am to record, and I hope as sensitive.” MindMayIdeasDifferentMatterEyeFilmMy OwnRecordsSubjectsCamerasSensitiveSilverSubject MatterDifferent Subjects Book:Edward Weston on photography Source: Edward Weston on photography

“I make some movies for myself. I do that sometimes when the subject matter is very sensitive and very personal and I really can't imagine that I'm an audience member. I would lose myself too much if I thought of myself as the audience. There are other types of genre films that I need to be able to direct from the audience, to be right next to you watching the picture being made.” IfsNeedsMadeSometimesMatterAbleFilmNextLosesAudienceToo MuchImagineSubjectsTypeMembersDirectGenreSensitiveImagine ThatSubject Matter Author:Steven Spielberg

“I always try to create equal power between the subject and the object, so as not to end up creating a relationship where the camera is here and the object out there. This is for me a very difficult and sensitive balance. When I produce a work, cut and frame images, I realize that spectators can identify with the images and almost forget that someone else actually made them. This would be the optimal situation. I don't know whether I succeed in doing so, but that's what I would like to have happen.” KnowsTryingMadeEndsHappensWould BeDifficultRealizingForgetSituationCuttingSubjectsObjectsProduceBalanceSucceedEqualCreatingCamerasSensitiveSpectatorsOptimalEqual Power Author:Pipilotti Rist
