I personally find perfection in art and music to be off-putting. You know? Like… I like listening to Billy Holiday because there’s vulnerability. I love listening to Nick Drake because of that vulnerability and imperfection. I get really almost intimidated and bored by perfect digital art. And I think some engineers and some producers and some people who work on the production side of making digital art or music just focus on creating perfection without vulnerability and beauty and humanity.

If you’ve ever had that feeling of loneliness, of being an outsider, it never quite leaves you. You can be happy or successful or whatever, but that thing still stays within you.

Prep is always the most satisfying moment, because that’s when you define the look of the film with all your dreams and desires. The shoot brings you back to the reality of what you can and cannot do. The shoot is disappointment with good surprises.

I may dislike some films, but I respect them all! Because even a bad film is hard to make.

But that’s the beauty of it all. We could have taken the easy route but I really don’t believe in that. If you’re going to kill yourself making a film, you might as well aim for the highest, even beyond what you feel you can accomplish. As artists and craftspeople we have to push ourselves beyond our limits, as it’s the only way we can improve and innovate. Growth always comes with a cost, and we paid for it in blood, sweat and tears.

Film is incredibly democratic and accessible, it’s probably the best option if you actually want to change the world, not just re-decorate it.

We’re all in it for the same thing. We’re all in it for our love for independent film-making, and everybody’s willing to help everybody out.

No art passes our conscience in the way film does, and goes directly to our feelings, deep down into the dark rooms of our souls.
