“I never used to watch horror films because I was a nervous type. I believed all the publicity about The Exorcist when it was released - you know, all that nonsense about people fainting in the cinema - and decided it would definitely freak me out. I particularly remember my girlfriend telling me about Suspiria - ironic considering my first ever film work was with Argento - and how scary it was.” PeopleKnowsFirstsRememberFilmUsedWatchesTypeHorrorDecidedScaryNervousCinemaGirlfriendNonsenseIronicFreakConsideringPublicityMy GirlfriendHorror FilmExorcistFainting Author:Simon Boswell
“I was a musician who began playing with computers, to see if they could make some tasks simpler. I developed some "tricks" or strategies for working with audio files, and then discovered that the same tricks could be applied to video files, or really, any type of data. Previously I made many different kinds of music. I did some work as a composer of film scores. In that role, my task was to create audio to match and deepen the visual. In my work now, the role is often reversed: I have to create images to match and deepen the audio.” IfsKindMadeDifferentFilmRolesTypeComputerMusicianTasksStrategyTricksVideoDataVisualsScoreComposerDifferent KindsFilesAudioDifferent Kinds Of MusicFilm Scores Author:Kurt Ralske

“I think there are three types of actors. There are the ones that do the ego thing, which is "I'm never going to look bad in a movie, ever." This is mostly the action film dudes, like, "Nah, hell no.

“What interests Sam Mendes are characters and relationships, and he was a genius at giving you the freedom to create the type of character you want, and also to explore and have fun with your fellow actors. For him, characters and relationships are really the heartbeat of the film, and then the action is the backdrop. By developing the characters, he makes you care that much more about the action and going on a journey with the characters.” WantGivingHeartCharacterCareActionFilmActorsFunInterestJourneyTypeGeniusFellowsDevelopingHaving FunHeartbeatBackdrop Author:Naomie Harris

“Sacrifice. I'd never been in a position where I was number one on the call sheet, and everything was in my lap.

“That's the type of thing you need to keep in mind when drawing comics. The storytelling. Consider the action and the space available to you, that's what will make it a great comics page. Once you've figured that out, you can always find/make the reference to support your storytelling decisions. So by all means, study film, but as with any reference, the results are better when they inform the craft and not dictate it.” NeedsMindMeanActionFilmSpaceDecisionResultsSupportStudyTypePagesAvailableDrawingStorytellingCraftsComic Book Author:Declan Shalvey
“I don't know if you've ever seen this film called Elite Squad, which, actually Wagner [Moura] is the one narrating that. José Padilha, one of creators of our show, that's where the style comes from.
