To me, film/cinema is the highest form of art that humanity has ever devised. It’s the perfect intersection of art and science. The elegance of stage performance, the meticulousness of musical composition, and the innovation of creative technology. It’s just as much an artform as it is a working class craft. It requires distinct expertise in so many different fields, and ultimately the pursuit of filmmaking has led to numerous instances of technological pioneering. The very nature of the craft creates infinite possibilities to tell stories. To have the honor and privilege of pursuing that craft and seeking to make your mark on that sprawling tapestry—there’s something extraordinarily special about that to me.
