My cameraman and I devised a method, which we started using from my second film, which applies mainly to day scenes shot in the studio, where we used bounced light instead of direct light. We agreed with this thing of four or five shadows following the actors is dreadful Picture Quote #1

The whole aspect of cinema and film festivals should be a moment to come together and celebrate art and humanity. It would be a shame if there was such a divide Picture Quote #1

It is very easy to make clear what you want a film to say, but I did not wish to engage in overt propaganda, even for the right cause. I wanted to create an experience through the films, something where people could have the freedom of their own response to them Picture Quote #1

A film should be an experience. You should feel something. It should motivate you to feel something Picture Quote #1

Everyone knows in the industry that when these great roles come up, every two years, there’s a huge number of people up for them. I’m not one of those top five females that can personally finance any film Picture Quote #1

A film is a director’s vision... there is, however, much input an actor or actress can have Picture Quote #1

I got too fed up with films that didn’t make you think. I liked the idea of one that you’d have to be dancing around with. I like my mind to be engaged when I watch a film Picture Quote #1

The only reason I ever do an independent film is that I believe in it, and I think it has something special to offer. I’m certainly not doing it to be a millionaire Picture Quote #1

I think a lot of the time these days people are so concerned about having the right camera and the right film and the right lenses and all the special effects that go along with it, even the computer, that they’re missing the key element Picture Quote #1

For me, the film has to be incredibly bad to make me want to pack up and leave Picture Quote #1

When you see the films of certain young directors, you get the impression that film history begins for them around 1980 Picture Quote #1

I hope we’re all kind of influencing each other now to keep the quality up on those things. They seem to be getting better and better and better as there’s not only sort of a film geek audience, there’s also a general interest in the overall film consuming population Picture Quote #1

Directing is creating a whole. You’re able to combine different elements and create a film that is unique and true to your vision Picture Quote #1

I knew nothing about the independent film industry. I didn’t know much about the industry itself. All I knew was how to watch movies, how to enjoy them, how to hate them, how not to like them Picture Quote #1

I think empathy is a beautiful thing. I think that’s the power of film though. We have one of the most powerful, one of the greatest communicative tools known to man Picture Quote #1

I wanted to write a film and I thought the best way to do so was to train myself within the field... It was just like a cycle of people trying to make it, not making it, doing extra work, and it was pretty depressing in the end Picture Quote #1
