What’s your definition of “making a movie?”

Here’s the one I like the best: “Making a movie (or documentary) is the art of visually telling a compelling story with believable characters.”

Let’s break that statement down further:

“Making a (good) movie is…”
- the ART of
- VISUALLY telling a
- COMPELLING STORY with
- BELIEVABLE CHARACTERS
