Michael Arndt Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Michael Arndt:

Working at Pixar has been like my graduate school for screenwriting.

I can write two scripts concurrently, but I usually prefer to do one at a time. However, I also usually have 5 or 6 story ideas that are percolating in my head at any one time, so it can get a little crowded in there.

Working at Pixar has been like my graduate school for screenwriting.

Michael Arndt

In live-action, writing, production, and editing happen in discrete stages. In animation, they overlap - happening simultaneously. This allows a real dialogue to occur between the writer, the director, the actors, and the editor, and it makes the writing process a lot more collaborative and a lot less lonely.

Michael Arndt

The great thing about the animation process is that is goes from, I write the lines, it goes to the actors, the actors bring a whole world to that, they bring the characters to life, then it goes to the animators, then it goes to the editor who cuts it together, and then you screen it and it goes back through the system again.

A good story is a good story, whatever the medium.

Michael Arndt

If you write a bunch of different characters with a bunch of different opinions, you end up with these long scenes of everyone standing around talking.

Michael Arndt

My God, there are so many mediocre screenplays out there.

Michael Arndt

Good writing is deceptive in that it hides its own artifice - it makes it seem easy.
