One of the worst things you can do is have a limited budget and try to do some big looking film. That's when you end up with very bad work.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.
Just trying to get a film made which is always difficult no matter what kind of a budget you have. Not having a budget makes it even more difficult. Having nineteen days and no budget makes it extremely difficult.
That's one of the benefits of working on big budget films. You work with people who have a lot of experience and you get to learn a lot.
When you do a low budget movie, you get a little over-ambitious.
Film work can be tedious and sort of all over the place, especially when you have a family and you're going off and doing things somewhere else.
Talking to other people who make low-budget movies, everyone kind of has the same struggle.
I'll never do a film because it's a massive budget and I'm gonna get lots of publicity for it and it will bring something else.
In truth, making films doesn't feel like hard work because I always have such a good time doing it.
Making a film, every film, is a big gamble, large or small. The more that you do it, the more you're aware of that.
As long as you keep your budgets small, there's a way of making films.
