Camera Quotes

I once said that effort is between you, and you, and nobody else. The same can be true between and individual and their camera. What you’re shooting is between you and you and nobody else. Outcomes are for the audience. The action is yours alone Picture Quote #1

People think that all cameramen do is point the camera at things, but it’s a heck of a lot more complicated than that Picture Quote #1

You know, the camera is not meant just to show misery. You can show things that you like about the universe, things that you hate about the universe. It’s capable of doing both Picture Quote #1

If you wait, people will forget your camera, and the soul will drift up into view Picture Quote #1

The camera gave me an incredible freedom. It gave me the ability to parade through the world and look at people and things very, very closely Picture Quote #1

American commercial cinema has long been dominated by men, but I don’t think there has ever been another time when women have been as underrepresented on screen as they are now. The biggest problem isn’t genuinely independent cinema, where lower budgets mean more opportunities for women in front of and behind the camera. The problem is the six major studios that dominate the box office, the entertainment chatter and the popular imagination. Their refusal to hire more female directors is immoral, maybe illegal, and has helped create and sustain a representational ghetto for women Picture Quote #1

Modeling teaches you to be completely conscious of the camera. Acting is being totally unconscious of it Picture Quote #1

I’ve ended up spending more time in front of a camera than on stage, but the stage is where I come from Picture Quote #1

I have definitely been curious and involved in the process; even as a young actor. I was always looking at where the camera was, what story it was telling. And as my experience grew, I wanted to know even more Picture Quote #1

Every time I step in front of a camera I feel young again. I really do. It keeps your mind active and it keeps you going Picture Quote #1

When I’m on camera, I have to do things pretty much the way I do things in everyday life. It gives the audience someone real to identify with Picture Quote #1

I love the camera; there’s something very special and sensual about it, and I have a tendency to call it a he, like it was a man. But, unlike a man, a camera is accepting of everything I do Picture Quote #1

Before you shoot an irresistible subject, mute all your senses except sight to find out how much is left for the camera to record Picture Quote #1

Realism and superrealism are what I’m after. This world is full of things the eye doesn’t see. The camera can see more, and often 10 times better Picture Quote #1

I don’t like kissing on camera. It’s bad enough to be caught kissing by your parents. But when you have a whole crew watching you, it’s a little weird Picture Quote #1

Being on set with my daughter watching her in front of the camera was a fantastic experience. I am so proud of her Picture Quote #1

I won’t do reality. That is done. And I don’t want people following me around with a camera 24 hours a day Picture Quote #1

People have been reading photography as a true document, at the same time they are now getting suspicious. I am basically an honest person, so I let the camera capture whatever it captures whether you believe it or not is up to you; it’s not my responsibility, blame my camera, not me Picture Quote #1

One night I had an idea while I was at the movies: to photograph the film itself. I tried to imagine photographing an entire feature film with my camera. I could already picture the projection screen making itself visible as a white rectangle. In my imagination, this would appear as a glowing, white rectangle; it would come forward from the projection surface and illuminate the entire theater. This idea struck me as being very interesting, mysterious, and even religious Picture Quote #1

A camera is a camera, a shot is a shot, how you tell the story is the main thing Picture Quote #1

Practicing going over scenes and in front of the camera just to see how that feels, and then ultimately just finding a way to expose yourself to people. That’s what I did Picture Quote #1

Every photograph that is made whether by one who considers himself a professional, or by the tourist who points his snapshot camera and pushes a button, is a response to the exterior world, to something perceived outside himself by the person who operates the camera Picture Quote #1

Laugh, love, dream, strive, smile, feel, joy, look, try, fail, read, walk, search, share, help, work, fun, learn, retry, sweat, cry, rest, wait, fear, hope, trust, pride... when we have lived all of these, our photography might stop being a record of what our camera sees and become an expression of what we as photographers feel Picture Quote #1

With dancing, you have to know spatial movement with somebody. It is steps. It’s literally steps and knowing how close to be or how far away. You have to have the beat in the right place with the camera Picture Quote #1

I began making pictures because I wanted to record what supports hope: the untranslatable mystery and beauty of the world. Along the way, however, the camera also caught evidence against hope, and I eventually concluded that this, too, belonged in pictures if they were to be truthful and thus useful Picture Quote #1

The world I feel, within the realm of art, is more genuine than the wrorld of matter. Artistic feeling is not tape measures, spectrographs, or flash camera lens Picture Quote #1

I love the idea I can go off with a single camera and a few rolls of film unencumbered... I was not interested in the illusion of reality, I wanted to get close to what was happening Picture Quote #1

Because I trained in theater, I always leave a film shoot feeling like I haven’t done anything, like I just sat in front of the camera and whispered, essentially Picture Quote #1

I almost became a music major, but somehow I was so enthralled with the camera and becoming a director that I stuck with film school and theatrics Picture Quote #1

I started out with this dream of being a director and doing cinematography and bought my first film camera at 15 Picture Quote #1
