Hat-making is laborious and time-consuming. It’s a very tactile medium, and you can develop the skills, but it’s one of those things: you either have it, or you don’t. I love bringing something to fruition with my hands that gives people pleasure.
I feel that film is inevitably the medium of the future. It has been for years, decades, but more so now than ever.

Films are the largest and most impactful medium.
There’s a scene in ‘Medium Cool’ in which a young man walks by with a sign that says, ‘Sanity, please.’ If anything summarizes what I was feeling at that time, it is that sign.

If you can’t answer the question ‘What is VR adding to that experience?’ – and it should be more than just a gee-whiz thing – then that project shouldn’t be in VR. You’re not taking full advantage of your medium.
I think the wonderful thing about doing theater is that it’s more of an actor’s medium. I think that film is more of a director’s medium. You can’t edit something out on stage. It’s there.
Good reporting is good reporting, regardless of the newness or oldness of the medium.
I had to see if I’m a real filmmaker. I mean, I have proven myself in movies and franchises, but am I an artist? Can I contribute something to a medium that I love so much?

TV is a good medium to reach people.

The medium is less important than the story we’re trying to tell and the funniest way to tell it.
I have to say that whatever decisions I make, I really do think that movie making is a director’s medium. They are the people that ultimately shape the film, and a director can take great material and turn it into garbage if they are not capable of making a good movie.
The way the recession has affected Hollywood, a lot of actors that had robust opportunities before in film no longer have such plum options, so cable has done a good job of becoming a happy medium for artists deemed film actors.
We’ve been in the business of regional banking, and we understand what it is to make loans, and that’s the engine of growth to small and medium sized business.
I still take photographs for my own use, personal studies. I do not feel that I can fully express my views through the medium and this is why I have moved towards painting.
You take 35 degrees out of 360 degrees and call it a photo. No individual photo explains anything. That’s what makes photography such a wonderful and problematic medium.

I think every age has a medium that talks to it more eloquently than the others. In the 19th century it was symphonic music and the novel. For various technical and artistic reasons, film became that eloquent medium for the 20th century.
Television is a very gratifying medium.
As an actor, you’ve to be honest while giving any shot, the camera is same in any medium, the sound system, too. So, it doesn’t matter.

Film as a medium has a power that sports like wrestling lack.

Trust is the conduit for influence; it’s the medium through which ideas travel.
My only close-to-game-plan is to follow good writing. If the writing is in TV or if it’s in theater or in film, that’s it. It doesn’t really matter what the medium is.

I do look at songwriting as a lot of work. I don’t over-intellectualize music as a special medium that only some people deserve to do. I think it’s something you do if you put the work in.
Astronomers sometimes observe that a star of medium magnitude increases suddenly in size; a star invisible to the naked eye may become very brilliant and visible without any telescope – the appearance of a Nova.
