I prefer the collaborative process of filmmaking. The more experience I get, the less equipment I use. I try to go a step beyond what I've done before every time I shoot and make a conscious effort not to repeat myself. I keep preconceptions to a minimum and put it together when all the elements are in front of me on the set. I don't think anyone can look at my body of work and say they recognize my style.
Every film is different.
It's like inventing a new language each time.
