I have a theory that the only way you can be any good is if the camera likes you. If the camera doesn't like you, you are gone.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Saturate yourself with your subject and the camera will all but take you by the hand.
I don't know if the camera likes me, but I do like the camera.
A movie camera is like having someone you have a crush on watching you from afar - you pretend it's not there.
When you are younger, the camera is like a friend and you can go places and feel like you're with someone, like you have a companion.
I've always felt comfortable in front of a camera. Either you're good at it or you're not good at it.
The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.
There are times when you're working with film people when you have to say, 'If the camera were on you, what you're doing would be perfect'.
If you're not going to tell something if you're not going to expose something it's real easy to go in and photograph from behind the camera and not expose any of your weaknesses.
I mean, if a camera's on you all the time, you don't get real moments.
The less friendly your relationship is on camera, the more useful it is to be friends with them off camera.
