Control is the wrong word. The practice is very much about sharing, and, in any creative practice, some individuals, whether partners or directors, are much closer to certain projects than I could ever be. ↗

One longs for a director with a sense of imagination. ↗

And later I thought, I can't think how anyone can become a director without learning the craft of cinematography. ↗

You have to remind casting directors out here that you don't just do one thing. There's a lot of people who do just one thing. ↗
