i wanna try 35mm, then go back to digital. i'm shooting my third feature once i'm done with VOICE, TILTED SCREENS.
got this from enuh:
DAVID LYNCH DUMPS FILM, GOES DIGITAL
MTV: You shot "Inland Empire" using digital technology. Will you ever go back to film?
Lynch: Never. Digital is so friendly for me and so important for the scenes, a way of working without so much downtime. It's impossible to go back. Film is a beautiful medium, but the world has moved on. The amount of manipulation we can do, anybody can do, is so much the future. Film is so big and heavy and slow, you just die. It's just ridiculous.
(more from lynch)
MTV: I know that controlling your films has been a big issue for you since Dune, because that film didn't turn out as you intended. Are you ever tempted to relinquish a little control in order to have access to a bigger budget?
Lynch: Never! Never! Never! Money could never make up for dying the death of seeing what could have been and not making it that way. Maybe it's because I came from painting, but it's just theater of the absurd. The filmmaker doesn't have the final say. It's absurd! A nightmare, a horror! Why would anyone do that?
(and finally)
MTV: Looking forward, do you think you'll continue to move further into experimental filmmaking, as in "Inland Empire"?
Lynch: I don't know which way anything will go because it's all about the ideas that come that you fall in love with. In between things, there are no ideas - and then suddenly there's the idea. If you fall in love with it, you know exactly what to do. Sometimes it can be surprising.
MTV: Do you ever worry the idea won't come?
Lynch: Sure, but that's how come I meditate every day, because when you meditate, you transcend and you experience the unbounded infinite ocean of creativity. And the ideas start flowing easier.
