TV helped me understand camera angles, close-ups, master shots.

Sushant Singh Rajput

You've gotta understand camera angles, camera movement - a kick that may not be very powerful may look very powerful from a certain angle.

Daniel Wu

It's fun to watch a true-blue movie star at work. They're really unbelievably charismatic. They understand camera angles.

Ana Gasteyer

I don't think there's a morally perfect way to do anything in life, but I'm not a filmmaker who tries to hide my mess.

Joshua Oppenheimer

I don't have a typical filmmaker background. I didn't grow up with a super eight camera or a video camera. I didn't start cutting movies when I was four or five.

F. Gary Gray

I have received the digital camera as a blessing. It has really changed my life as a filmmaker, because I don't use my camera anymore as a camera. I don't feel it as a camera. I feel it as a friend, as something that doesn't make an impression on people, that doesn't make them feel uncomfortable, and that is completely forgotten in my way of approaching life and people and film.

Abbas Kiarostami

Redford always has been a cool presence both before and behind the camera. His best movie as a filmmaker, 1994's 'Quiz Show,' exhibits a classicism verging on self-repression, and the social indignation in many of his films engages more than moves you.

Steve Erickson

You don't rehearse jazz to death to get the camera angles.

Stan Getz

It has a lot to do with just sort of trust in the relationship that builds between the filmmaker and the subject. There are some people who will never be relaxed in front of a camera, and in some ways that's my failing as a filmmaker to not put them at ease. It's also a function of time, and if you have that type of time.

Liz Garbus

You have to remain strong. That's the kind of filmmaker I want to encourage. Orson Welles was the one who said, you know, you can learn anything you need to know about filmmaking- that's camera, sound, celluloid, video at this point- in four hours. It has nothing to do with anything. It has nothing to do with it... It has to do with what you want to say. If you feel you have something to say, you'll find that way to get it said, on film, and not let anyone or anything chip away at that or tarnish it, because it's something special and precious.
