PHIL SAYS...
“I think these titles [legend, and pioneer] that are attributed to people are the result of people who have stayed alive for a long time, and have done a body of work, that has for one reason or another influenced other people.”
PHIL SAYS...
"The way one thinks of themselves is not necessarily the way everyone else thinks about you, so when euphemisms are brought up like ‘pioneer’ and ‘legend’, it’s kinda cute in a way, and endearing. But it makes me a little bit nervous because it’s like foreshadowing. You know, ok, you see that box over there? That’s where you’re going. You’re going into ‘the legend box!"

"There are 800 galley slaves pulling oars beneath the decks of [a VFX] performance."

"Every once in awhile we'll drag out a high-speed Mitchell camera from 1925 that still works great. Everything else that we have probably doesn't even have dust on it yet."

“I expect visual effects will just fall into the nomenclature of filmmaking.” -at the Edit8 Festival in Frankfurt, Germany
PHIL SAYS...
"The fact of the matter is, the way you arrive at that place- and you can talk to anybody about this, who is a “legend or pioneer” or whatever- is they just got lucky and they blundered into things. They turned around and people liked the stuff they did. You just got lucky, you got lucky a bunch of times. But in the course of a career or a lifetime, you see this time and time again, in anybody’s life, there are peaks and valleys.”
PHIL SAYS...
“We’re in a little bit of a fantasy stage with this digital stuff where we say, well you can do anything you want ...to a certain degree, it’s about doing an engineering reality check.”
PHIL SAYS...
"The tail doesn’t wag the dog. It’s not about the latest software package or anything like that. It goes back to the character and what the character tells you to do."
PHIL SAYS...
"We're living in a gulag of talking animals and superheroes."
PHIL SAYS...
"I want to see every single penny up on the screen. That’s where the production is, and I don’t want to see it in a cappuccino machine, or fancy carpet or a visitor’s lounge. I’m going to do the stuff I think is important and put the resources where I think they should go.”
