I am a hybrid. I do independent films and also do Hollywood films - I love them both Picture Quote #1

I don’t get tripped up in technology. I use technology as a tool. ‘Oldboy’ we shot Two Pro 35mm. For ‘Da Blood of Jesus,’ we shot digitally. We shot the new Sony F55. It’s a 4K camera Picture Quote #1
