Studio Quotes

I’ve been messing around in the studio the last couple of years. But I don’t want to worry about being taken seriously as a singer. It just really feels good to do it Picture Quote #1

I was amazed at how the life of a freelancer differed from running a remote studio for another company. I thought I knew what I was doing in 2004 when I left Eidos because I had run Ion Storm Austin, which was my own independent studio. I had run a business unit inside Origin, but being part of a startup is crazy Picture Quote #1

Being able to walk out of the studio after a week of intense recording and jump into a cold sea and sit in a hot spring and soak for a few hours completely resets the whole system. Really refreshing. For me, it’s all about stepping out of the ordinary. Even psychically Picture Quote #1

I think I’m the only singer who doesn’t have a temper. The only time I got angry was at a music studio when I was made to wait for three hours without being informed about the delay in the recording Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about Lionsgate. They are fearless. No other studio would have made ‘Hunger Games’ the way they did. They’re being fearless in the way they make decisions, and it’s paying off for them Picture Quote #1

You have to collaborate with the moment and the environment. It kind of was magnified by the house being a studio Picture Quote #1

Being in a space that’s not a studio, it kind of creates an openness of ‘We can do whatever we want here; we’re not on the clock.’ Picture Quote #1

I formed my own studio, carried my own deficits, owned one-hundred percent of my negatives, and made a lot of mistakes, but we ended up being the third largest TV studio in Hollywood Picture Quote #1

Almost everything I learned about being an actor came from those early years at the Actor’s Studio Picture Quote #1

As a studio, you have to have a niche. You have to provide a service and there has to be a reason for your being around Picture Quote #1

Glee Project’ and ‘Glee’ have the same spirit, but they’re both harder in their own ways. With ‘Glee Project,’ there’s more pressure because you’re being judged in everything you do. When you film ‘Glee,’ you go to the studio and have an off day, and it’s OK - you’re still going to be there; you take as many chances as you need Picture Quote #1

I enjoy the collaboration. I always envied people in bands who got to have that interaction. I’ve done so many albums where I’ve been in the studio for 14 hours a day for six months just trying to come up with things on my own. It’s a nice change helping other people with their music and not being all about what I’m trying to do myself Picture Quote #1

Because I’m such a studio guy, I really trust my process. I really believe in myself in the studio Picture Quote #1

If I get a note on my script or my films, what I say to a studio executive is that, ‘You know, this is the film of my legacy, and I never want to be sitting in a theater looking up on the screen and seeing something that I don’t believe in.’ I will never do that Picture Quote #1

A powerful studio boss doesn’t want to be bested by a woman, even in chess. And a successful agent steps on a lot of toes. You lose actors jobs so you can get them for your own clients Picture Quote #1

Woody Allen is a better actor than anybody from the Actors Studio, and he can be anybody he says he is Picture Quote #1

Carrie’ was a pretty big-budget movie at a real studio, with a director that had already done a bunch of things and had some notoriety, and Stephen King was the writer Picture Quote #1

There is a difference between a great producer and somebody who is a big advocate of your music. Just because you’re a big advocate for a band doesn’t mean you need to be in the studio with them, and at the same time - we don’t need to get into this conversation - you can write a hit, but it might not hit Picture Quote #1

I think I worked an average of about 10 minutes a day [in Big Bang Theory series]. It took longer to get to the studio than I actually worked. So I regard the driving there as the actual job. The work itself was just fun Picture Quote #1
