I can get behind this:
“The old model of acting is that the rehearsal is great and then things change when you say ‘rolling’ –usually for the worse. Now there’s no film in the camera. You can shoot everything. So there’s no rehearsal. Or perhaps it’s all rehearsal. Either way, it’s far more natural.”
There is something powerful about this. I couldn’t quite put my finger on it when I was watching the War of the Worlds (Spielberg Version), but the above quote triggered it for me. It was his first forray into digital film making, and there was a certain authenticity in the faces of the actors.
And this seems to be the trend. As more and more directors adopt digital film making techniques, and become comfortable with these tools, the human condition will finally be reflected on the silver screen in a way that here-to-fore has rarely been seen.
That’s something I can really digg.
