“When you've only got few days of rehearsal before you're in the studio, it's wonderful to start off with people that you have good, friendly, tolerable relationships to start with, for the simple reason that you don't have to spend 24 hours figuring out how sensitive they are, and can you give them a line reading, or how do you have to give them direction.” PeopleGivingReasonReadingHoursLinesSimpleWonderfulStudiosSensitiveFriendlyGood FriendRehearsalTolerable Author:John Cleese
“I feel like we are so used to CGI [computer-generated imagery] and thank god because it is a wonderful tool, but there is an element of everything you are looking at has been created in the comfort of a studio.

“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

“As a kid, I just was a contract player at MGM Studios. They put me into goodness knows how many different roles.Some of them were wonderful and some of them were very just distasteful and awful because I was playing out of my age range and I was thoroughly uncomfortable, let's put it that way.

“To aspiring writers, I would tell them that we live in a wonderful time where you're able to make your work visible, easily. If you think about it, even ten years ago or twenty years ago, there was a middle man, there was a publisher, there were studios, there was this world of rejection letters. Now, we're in a place where we have the technology and the ability to go shoot our own movies or to put stuff on YouTube or a blog, if you're a writer, or self-publish.” IfsThinkingMenWorldYearsSelfAbleStuffAbilityTechnologyWonderfulMiddleThis WorldTenYears AgoLettersTwentiesStudiosRejectionVisiblePublishersPublishBlogsYoutubeWonderful TimesAspiring WritersRejection Letters Author:Diablo Cody
“When my band MU landed on Maui in 1973 we were greeted by a wonderful group of peace loving brothers & sisters who we immediately formed a bond with. We had two instant roadies, Spider & Richard, who helped with every move of our musical equipment. We settled into our house on the edge of the rainforest that eventually became a portable studio. We started rehearsing and booked the Lahaina Civic Auditorium for a full moon concert starring MU and a local band The Space Patrol.” TwoMovingHouseSpaceWonderfulGroupsBrotherMoonBandMusicalEdgesStudiosLocalsInstantConcertsEquipmentSpidersCivicsFull MoonMauiRehearsingRainforestBrother SisterAuditoriums Author:Merrell Fankhauser
