directors editors -> filmmakers

entourage is a great show!

i just completed the entire series of 5 seasons. finally after a break, when i couldnt get the dvds from the library. the show has alot of directors 'guest appearing' in the show, and i been watching some of the 'makings of...' and featurettes. and here are my thoughts...

in a great movie, the directors and the actors are always the one being recognised.

producers, the one that makes everything happen, doing alot of shit. are under-recognised job. worst of all, i personally think, editors, who brings the magic to the screen, are the worst of the lot. at least producers earn all the profits if the film turns out well. editors. hmm? tough work. standard pay. not recognised at all. the guy for bangkok dangerous. according to cheeharn, is a thai, did a fantastic job. but no one really recognised it.

tough. a tough industry indeed. in a country as small as singapore, we gotta stop thinking that we are small in size, and think that we cant be great. well. true that we dont not have enough budget and support, but we sure do have talent. so dream big! haha jiayou, filmmakers!

filmmakers: definition: people who shoot films, regardless of whatever roles they are taking.
