In The Nude, All That Is Not

A Film Is Born In My Head And I Kill It On Paper. It Is Brought Back To Life By The Actors And Then Killed In The Camera. It Is Then Resurrected Into A Third And Final Life In The Editing Room Where The Dismembered Pieces Are Assembled Into Their Finished Form.

When A Sound Can Replace An Image, Cut The Image Or Neutralize It. The Ear Goes More Towards The Within, The Eye Towards The Outer.

The Future Of Cinematography Belongs To A New Race Of Young Solitaries Who Will Shoot Films By Putting Their Last Penny Into It And Not Let Themselves Be Taken In By The Material Routines Of The Trade.

Empty The Pond To Get The Fish.

For Me, Film-making Is Combining Images And Sounds Of Real Things In An Order That Makes Them Effective. What I Disapprove Of Is Photographing Things That Are Not Real. Sets And Actors Are Not Real.
