believer creating low movies parameters people starts
I'm a big believer in creating parameters for creativity. I think parameters make people more creative. So that starts with my budgets. I only do low budget movies, and I think that makes the movies better.
hard succeeds theatrical wide
It's really hard to make an original movie of any kind that succeeds in the theatrical market place, in the wide release market place.
audience filmmakers helps minutes people scare spend stuff
I try not to put pressure on filmmakers to come up with a big scare at the beginning. I think that helps let the audience settle in and get to know the people they're about to spend 90 minutes with. Once the scarier stuff happens, it's scarier because of that.
age hopefully life minute
The minute I was told what to do at any age, I did the opposite. Hopefully I'll do that for the rest of my life.
concepts people
YouTube is found footage. It's here to stay, and people will always come up with new concepts that will make sense for found footage.
There are so many factors that go into having a successful movie.. too many that you can't control.
