Filmmaking Quotes

Most of my films have been documentaries, but I’m also very interested in narrative filmmaking Picture Quote #1

I stopped making videos and commercials for a few months before I started films just to reset my clock because so much narrative filmmaking is a sense of tempo and rhythm Picture Quote #1

Several years ago, as I was transitioning from film finance to film production and writing again, someone asked me how long I would try to get back into filmmaking before I gave up? My response was giving up was not an option Picture Quote #1

I think I veered towards filmmaking because there’s more of a sense of control in it. You’re not waiting to be picked. That said, in film school I acted in probably 6,000 student films because no other filmmakers knew anyone who wanted to act. It was all a big beautiful snake eating its tail, progressing along the way Picture Quote #1

To me the recognition of the audience is part of the filmmaking process. When you make a movie, it’s for them Picture Quote #1

My favorite part of the whole filmmaking process is working with a fantastic cinematographer, a fantastic actor or actors, and then just creating emotions and stories. I get so excited by that. That’s the part I’m utterly addicted to Picture Quote #1

What’s important in the filmmaking process has stayed the same. Keep it small, keep it personal, keep it authentic, work with people you like and trust. That process is much longer than the filmmaking process. The development process is a long one, so try and say something of importance Picture Quote #1

After working for a while, I realized that acting was only satisfying about 30 percent of what interested me about the filmmaking process. Somewhere around age seventeen, I started to realize that if I’m very particular about the people I work with, then I can have the best sort of master class possible Picture Quote #1

If I can have the opportunity to go into an editing room, it’s like the golden ticket for me. All I want is to learn about everything else in the filmmaking process. I just directed a music video which just came out and that’d sort of be the area of the field that I’m going to move into, I hope Picture Quote #1

Any filmmaking, any film is a collaborative process. There’s always a lot of people working on things together Picture Quote #1

For me writing and filmmaking is a therapeutic process. It reflects themes that I’m going through at a time in my life Picture Quote #1

I think filmmaking should be a wonderfully free collaborative process, and it so very rarely is. I often see directors as jailers of my talent Picture Quote #1

The 90s were the decade in which studio filmmaking became a much more purely corporatized process, when their crassness ceased to operate on such a relatively individual scale Picture Quote #1

I love filmmaking, and I love the process. And I would rather do nothing else. It’s a privilege to be able to paint such big pictures, so to speak Picture Quote #1

Trying to find the story within the story was hard. Filmmaking is such a reductive process in a strange way and you keep whittling away to what is essential Picture Quote #1

There are a lot of aspects of filmmaking that I love, but one of my favorites is in post, finding the right song for the right moment Picture Quote #1

My brother Van got the computer first and showed me what it was like to edit video. I definitely credit Van with turning me onto filmmaking Picture Quote #1

I’ve had really great experiences working with first-time directors. They come at filmmaking with fresh ideas. I’ve been very lucky that way Picture Quote #1

Filmmaking is a great adventure. I’m as excited as a kid to be given tickets to fly suddenly to England, South Africa, America, everywhere. I’m still a 13-year-old kid, flying Picture Quote #1

I think the most satisfying part about filmmaking is seeing a production in full bloom. When I write, I write in isolation Picture Quote #1

I like the idea of chance coming into filmmaking, in shooting, in editing, and I do make space in my rules of game for chance Picture Quote #1

I like figuring out where I need to be mentally so that I’m not thinking about the camera and that it’s second nature. I want to get to a place where I can exist within the confines of what you can do with filmmaking and not have to think about it Picture Quote #1

Find your own specific voice in filmmaking and go for it. Either people will get it or they won’t and that’s what it’s all about Picture Quote #1

I started out doing music videos and photography, and I always loved writing. Filmmaking seemed to be a good compilation of all these skills in a way that allowed me to tell a story ‘greater than the sum of its parts.’ Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to live in L.A. The other thing that always inspired me was movies; that’s why I’m here. I always wanted to be a part of the movie business and make movies. That’s why I went to AFI grad school for filmmaking Picture Quote #1

Whole class of filmmakers, they’re all graduating to a new level of filmmaking, which I think is awesome Picture Quote #1

You may love football, but that doesn’t mean you have any business trying to play the sport. It’s the same thing with filmmaking... everybody has a great idea for a movie, but do you have the stamina to get good at your craft and deal with how heartbreaking it is? Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned a great deal about a certain type of filmmaking. But I have ambitions toward another type of filmmaking that I haven’t been allowed to engage in yet Picture Quote #1

What I want to do with my filmmaking is help kids experience the truth and wisdom of nature no matter where they are, whether or not they have the opportunity to go to a national park Picture Quote #1
