Roger Deakins Quotes

Maybe that sounds a bit pretentious, but I think life experience is always more important than technical knowledge Picture Quote #1

Every shot I have ever made has been a compromise in some way. No image has ever been as good as the one I envisioned in my mind’s eye Picture Quote #1

I think technology has advanced so far now that there are some cameras on the market that give film a run for its money. It’s all about flexibility in capturing images, and digital or film, it doesn’t matter to me Picture Quote #1

If you shoot with a billion cameras, then there’s no perspective. You want to use one shot at a time, so it’s better to discover what that is before you shoot, rather than trying to make something in the cutting room, and then it just becomes generic Picture Quote #1

I feel every shot, every camera move, every frame, and the way you frame something and the choice of lens, I see all those things are really important on every shot Picture Quote #1

Some of the smallest things on a smaller film, to me, are greater achievements than on a big film when you have the resources and the time and everything else Picture Quote #1

I am concerned that the subtlety is being lost and every film tends to look very contrasty and saturated Picture Quote #1

I think of filmmaking as a form of communication. Maybe it’s also an art, but that’s for somebody else to decide Picture Quote #1

I never really considered film as a career, but I knew I didn’t want to be a builder. So I went to art college, and it just gradually happened Picture Quote #1

I came up, I suppose, a fairly traditional way. I went to art college. I always wanted to be a stills photographer, really, when I was younger, and I briefly worked as a stills photographer Picture Quote #1

I do miss the idea of the crew getting together to watch dailies after work. I will usually get selected dailies printed on film especially for the early part of a shoot as HD dailies really don’t tell me much photographically Picture Quote #1

I want a script to affect me in some way. I am usually drawn to character studies, scripts about real people and the world we live in not some fantasy Picture Quote #1

I loved movies ever since I was a kid Picture Quote #1

Your whole life informs your eye Picture Quote #1

I am not a fan of having too much gear Picture Quote #1

To me if there’s an achievement to lighting and photography in a film it’s because nothing stands out, it all works as a piece. And you feel that these actors are in this situation and the audience is not thrown by a pretty picture or by bad lighting Picture Quote #1

There are some sequences in films that I think work filmicly, that stand out to me, but thats much more to do with the staging and the cutting and the mood of the thing as a sequence, the way everything comes together Picture Quote #1

If reviewers don’t mention your work, it’s probably better than if they do Picture Quote #1

Someone said to me, early on in film school if you can photograph the human face you can photograph anything, because that is the most difficult and most interesting thing to photograph Picture Quote #1
