First and foremost, I look for a great script. Then, the team that I am working with. Only then, we will be able to come up with a good film.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I hope to be involved in a successful movie script.
For me, it's important that the script is good. Then a good director will want to make it.
Everything you care about is getting the next step right: getting the script right, finding the right actors, shooting it. Then you spend half a year in a dark room editing your film, and you don't talk to anybody.
Any film I do needs to excite me at a script level.
If there's a good screenplay, there's a chance that something good is going to happen. If you don't have a brilliant screenplay, then you either have amazing actors who give you the chance to improve whatever is on the page, or an interesting director who has enough faith in the project that they can carry it through and get it somewhere.
I hope I can become a good enough filmmaker where I can take a script that I'm not 'heart and soul' into, but I could still make something really great out of it.
I have always thought if you are going to make a film, it's much better to have an original script that will play to film's strengths.
I enjoy the details. I enjoy coming up with ideas for improving the script, changing scenes and deciding what locations and wardrobe should be - the process of making a film.
For me, the script is important. If it excites me, I'll do the film.
I think the first thing I consider is whether I like the script. Once that is done, the next thing I look for is my part in the movie. Many a times you come across good offers, but the part they are offering might not be challenging. So, I don't take up that film.
