Micheal Williams Quote

“That movie [Lostin Translation] was done
with minimal equipment.When I met
Lance [Acord] I had been accustomed to
working on large-scale movies and being
encumbered and enamored with all ofthe
equipment, so much so thatthe humanity
can getlost. I’ve since become very
interested in working light. It’s not because
ofthe economics, butrather because it
brings you closerto your subjects. So often
the machinery of ourindustry distracts us,
and we lose touch with what we are hired
to do. I find ittruly rewarding to be able to
getthe striking results we achieved on this
spot with such a simple approach.”
