“Television is a powerful medium that has to be used for something better than sitcoms and police shows. On the other hand, if you don't recognize the forces that play on what people watch and what they don't then you're a fool and you should be in a different business.” PeopleIfsShouldDifferentPlayShowsHandsUsedForcePowerfulWatchesTelevisionFoolPoliceMediumsSomething BetterSitcom Author:Roone Arledge
“I think television has become such an interesting place for characters and for incredible storytelling. Half of what I watch are television shows that I've become obsessed with. I just think that it's opened up so much, to be such an interesting and creative medium, and so many wonderful directors and actors are moving to television because it is a great medium for telling stories and for creating a character over a long period of time.” ThinkingLongCharacterStoriesShowsMovingActorsInterestingHalfWatchesCreativeWonderfulTelevisionPeriodsDirectorsCreatingIncrediblesStorytellingMediumsObsessedTelevision ShowsTelling StoriesLong Periods Of TimeInteresting Places Author:Elijah Wood
“A film, since it is primarily a visual medium, should really be like a silent film. You should be able to watch something and understand what was going on and use voice when you need to communicate something you can't necessarily communicate visually. The book is the opposite. The book is an inner monologue which is beautiful.” NeedsShouldBookUseAbleBeautifulFilmVoiceWatchesOppositesSilentCommunicateMediumsVisualsMonologuesSilent Films Author:Tom Ford
“Animation, for me, is a wonderful art form. I never understood why the studios wanted to stop making animation. Maybe they felt that the audiences around the world only wanted to watch computer animation. I didn't understand that, because I don't think ever in the history of cinema did the medium of a film make that film entertaining or not. What I've always felt is, what audiences like to watch are really good movies.” ThinkingWorldArtWantedFilmFormFeltWatchesAudienceWonderfulComputerUnderstoodStudiosMediumsAround The WorldCinemaEntertainingAnimationGood MovieReally Good MovieComputer Animation Author:John Lasseter
