How did you get on with the camera and special effects work?
All the effects, I learned to study. There are only two ways to deal with it: you can either become petulant about these things and find yourself grappling with them in a very irritating way, or you can study them, and if you study anything your curiosity is piqued and therefore you�re fully involved. So I learned about the blue screen and the green screen, I learned about motion controls, split screen, and the more I learnt the more intrigued I became by this beast, which believe me is - a fearsome creature.
The camera is, not objective, you do know that, don�t you? The camera is very discerning and can be quite tough and judgmental. If it doesn�t like you, it really doesn�t like you. But it responds if you respect it. I know I�m talking strangely now, but this is true. I really addressed the camera as I would a human being, chatted with it in the morning, �How are we doing today? Going to get along?� and learned about it. And as I honoured the camera I think, it increasingly honoured me - not a match made in heaven, however.
