Quotes to consider
- "The trimming process is always invaluable. You have to step away for [a while] and concentrate on something else. Then come back to what you thought was your finished product. Look at it again with fresh eyes and see what it is that can be trimmed. We always fall in love with our babies but the best hat you can wear as a filmmaker is a viewer's hat. Just keep the story moving."
—Chris King, discussing his short film Rachel, on the Manhattan Short Film Festival web site.
