Filmmaker

Pick up a camera. Shoot something. No matter how small, no matter how cheesy, no matter whether your friends and your sister star in it. Put your name on it as director. Now you’re a director. Everything after that you’re just negotiating your budget and your fee. 
James Cameron

Quentin Tarantino 


In England, I'm a horror movie director. In Germany, I'm a filmmaker. In the US, I'm a bum.

People have forgotten how to tell a story. Stories don’t have a middle or an end any more. They usually have a beginning that never stops beginning. 
Steven Spielberg
