technology people creative
Creative people are notoriously the slowest to adopt new technology.
remember found situation
The accidents are things that audiences always remember most, I've found on my own movies. The things that they like the most are the things that were just by accident. So you have to create a situation where nothing but accidents can happen the entire time.

Don't look at all at what other people are doing. Think of what you're doing as completely fresh because if you imitate you're dead.

There are real issues going on in just about any movie that's got fun elements to it.

I don't think anyone can be more of a predator than a human being.

I always wanted to be a stay-at-home dad making art, making movies.

When given an opportunity, deliver excellence and never quit.

Low budgets force you to be more creative. Sometimes, with too much money, time and equipment, you can over-think. My way, you can use your gut instinct.

A movie goes from several stages, from idea to script. As you continue shooting, you will make some adjustments. You're constantly adjusting. It's like a piece of music. You're constantly trying to make it better.
art mistake way
Tell everyone that your mistakes are art. You can get away with a lot that way.
