NOTE

How he built his instincts

Instincts in filmmaking develop through an innate sense of composition and learned philosophies. The ability to intuitively place the camera and cover a scene signifies a foundational instinct. Influences from other filmmakers' philosophies can enrich one's understanding and guide the creative process, forming a path of artistic development. Additionally, personal experiences, such as growing up with an artist parent, can significantly shape one's aesthetic sensibilities and reinforce instinctual skills in composition. The inspiration drawn from analyzing the work of others enhances the filmmaker's ability to understand and implement effective composition in their own projects.
