“If I had the money, I would love to open up a movie theater that just played images and colors and beautiful music. For me, there's nothing like listening to a beautiful opera sometimes - on a record or seeing it live - just to be sleepy and let those beautiful voices take me somewhere I've never been before.” IfsSometimesBeautifulVoiceRecordsSeeingColorListeningTheaterTake MeOperaSleepyMovie TheaterBeautiful MusicBeautiful Voice Author:Peter Stormare
“Traditionally, digital projects, when you project them, they get really washed out. It's complicated stuff with gamma, but basically your blacks get very milky and the colors get very weak, and we made so many different versions of it to just pump more color into it, so it would look just as good in the theater as it does on your screen at home. And color was my constant whine. It needed to be very oversaturated.” LooksDoeMadeDifferentHomeStuffColorNeededProjectsWeakTheaterConstantComplicatedScreensVersionsDigitalGet RealPumps Author:Don Hertzfeldt
“I believe in Mexico there's a big culture of moviegoing, both studio and indie. I think here in the US that's not the case because Latino communities don't have access to indie films.

“I grew up in Houston, and I remember we had separate drinking fountains, and black people sat in the balcony of the theater...

“When student-actors see people and the way they behave when together, see the color of the sky, hear the sounds in the air, feel the ground beneath them and the wind on their faces, they get a wider view of their personal world and development in the theater is quickened. The world provides the material for the theater and artistic growth develops hand-in-hand with one's recognition of it and one's self within it.” PeopleWorldWayFeelsSelfHandsTogetherFacesActorsSoundGrowthViewsActingAirSkyStudentsColorWindMaterialsDevelopmentTheaterRecognitionArtisticBehaveHand In Hand Author:Viola Spolin
