When you see Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master and it's shot on film at 75mm it's...you know. It's hard to compare. But I still think that digital is close enough, and I think it's getting closer and closer to be...there's no doubt it's going to be taking over completely unfortunately.
Fredrik BondI think I've always admired sort of dynamic filmmakers, which doesn't shy away from strong expressions. Which might be a little more theatrical at some points.
Fredrik BondWhen you're working with film and you hear that mag starting to roll and you know that there's thousands of dollars just spinning around, it's another stress element, which I don't enjoy at all.
Fredrik BondWhat I love about the filmmakers that I mentioned [Danny Boyle,Leo Carax], is that it's visual but it's also, you see that the characters are the most important thing. The actors are the most important thing.
Fredrik BondI've been working with music videos and commercials, they are naturally very music driven and visual driven. So that feels like my natural element to be working with that.
Fredrik BondDanny Boyle has been a huge, has had a huge effect on me. His movies, early movies like Trainspotting and those movies. So I've always loved the energies of those movies. But also, that they are very focused on the characters. Cause it's not only gimmickery, it's not only about visuals. You feel a real need, a love for the main characters. So that's what I've always loved about watching movies myself.
