I know my audience, and they, in turn, know my cinema. When I pick a subject, it's for a family audience. I shoot and edit my films keeping them in mind. I'm dead sure about the product that bears my name.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like to make films where I learn along the way, like the audience.
To me the recognition of the audience is part of the filmmaking process. When you make a movie, it's for them.
I like cinema audiences. I respect them, and I talk to them just like I would anybody I know.
People think that I have some idea about how I choose my films. I make sure that I am doing the kind of films that I want to watch. You hear so many stories, and one of them will stand out and connect to you somewhere.
When I write, I keep the family audience in mind. I ensure there's no vulgarity, as families are coming into the theatres, and there's no blood and gore because of the kids. There is a set of people who doesn't like my cinema, but there's a bigger group that likes the kind of movies I make.
I was an audience member before I'm a filmmaker. All I've tried to do as a filmmaker was to make movies I want to see.
I make movies that audiences like, that I'd want to see. That's all.
I feel like I share a great relationship with my audience where they trust my judgment and choice of films and sense of comedy.
I've always been really involved in figuring out who my audience is and how to reach them.
When I'm making a film, I'm the audience.
