Things I’ve Learned as a Moviemaker

by Kristina Boden | Published February 3, 2007

Julia Stiles and Ethan Hawke in Michael Almereyda's Hamlet.

Respect the director-cinematographer collaboration

I am very respectful of the relationship between the director and the DP. I have never inserted myself into the discussion of the look of the film, but I have, of course, requested specific shots.

Every film is a challenge

Every film is a challenge, and I learn something unique from it. Whether it is some technical innovation, directional vision or political situation. The wonderful thing about having experience is that you have confronted so many challenges.

Notes from Movieland: 14: Sundance, 28: Hollywood High

I promised to write about Antonio (Tony) Manriquez a few blogs ago. He’s one of the cinematic child wonders currently coming up through the ranks. Though still pursuing his own moviemaking expression on some level, Tony, 28, now teaches other youngsters the magic of moviemaking. One of the reasons I wanted to write about Tony was his incredible passion for and knowledge of not only the craft of moviemaking, but the world of film.
