I would like to see more films being made with people of color behind the camera and in front of the camera, because the more times at bat we have, the better we get.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We need more filmmakers of color telling the story. I'd like to see more filmmakers take their products out independently, put together a good commercial film and distribute it online.
There needs to be more film directors of colour. They bandy about the word 'diversity' a lot, but when I say 'of colour,' I mean Asian, black - I mean people of all colour. We need to have those voices given the opportunity, not told that their films will not be distributed or will not sell well abroad.
Film gives us the luxury of deciding where the viewpoint of the audience is, and by knowing that, we can very effectively design around what is actually seen on camera.
Simultaneously, the movie business now experiments with a colorblind approach to casting.
You always make a film with the hope that all types of people will want to see your work and that it doesn't matter about your color, but unfortunately it still does.
We want the diversity of the world that is around us represented both in front of and behind the camera, and on our screens as a result.
I like making black and white films in natural surroundings, but I much prefer shooting a color film inside a studio where the colors are easier to control.
I want to encourage the non-star, low-profile film, and maybe we've got a chance.
As the years go by and I make more films, I am increasingly interested in capturing place as a vivid backdrop for my films.
I would love to explore film seeing as I have prominently been on television. It would be nice to change it up and focus on film a little bit.
