The most important thing is, how can I move forward towards something that I can't articulate, that is new in storytelling with moving images and sound?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We're living in a tremendously new landscape, and the possibility of what can be created is immense. These tools of the moving image have a relatively short history in art, and what we can do with them is still largely unknown. We are still innovating and finding ways to tell stories.
Seek art from every time and place, in any form, to connect with those who really move you.
I haven't thought about getting into production. I'm interested in the creative aspect of storytelling.
You just keep moving forward and doing what you do and hope that it resonates with people. And if it doesn't, you just keep moving on until you find a project that does.
Be drawn to the visual arts for it can expand your imagination.
I always want to be telling stories in whatever fashion I can, and directing is really just understanding and learning a different element of that storytelling process.
We're really interested in more visual storytelling, figuring out a way to blend our level of observation with a bigger visual scope.
The exciting thing about doing art for someone else's story is how I can translate their world through pictures, and that's always a pretty big challenge.
I've been obsessed with this kind of visual storytelling for quite a while, and I try to create material that allows me to explore it.
So I like to try to go back and develop pure visual storytelling. Because to me, it's one of the most exciting aspects of making movies and almost a lost art at this point.
