Camera Quotes - III

2. When you're in front of the camera, you have to try to create different emotions because even the person making pictures of you needs inspiration. To be 'you' means nothing - you can be so many yous. - Monica Bellucci

3. I started modelling while still studying. I liked doing television commercials and being in front of the camera. Lots of ad directors told me to try for films. - Kriti Sanon

9. Microsoft Research has a thing called the Sense Cam that, as you walk around, it's taking photos all the time. And the software will filter and find the ones that are interesting without having to think, 'Let's get out the camera and get that shot.' You just have that, and software helps you pick what you want. - Bill Gates

10. I have been trying to retire to the back of the camera for quite a few years, and in 1970, when I first started directing, I said, 'If I could pull this off, I can some day move to the back of the camera and stay there.' - Clint Eastwood

11. A movie camera is like having someone you have a crush on watching you from afar - you pretend it's not there. - Daryl Hannah

12. I think that I need to work on being comfortable at being normal, everyday-ish on camera. Unlike a lot of actors, I think that's the thing that I'm not so comfortable with. - Christina Ricci.
