John Dykstra Quotes
As with sound, images are subjective. You and I may not see the same color red as red, but we will probably agree that the image on the screen is a digital image or film image, based on contrast, bit depth, and refresh rate. - John Dykstra Quotes
Because I come from that old-school optics environment, I know stuff about depth of field and camera movement and things that are not necessarily a part of the curriculum for people who started on a box and have never done anything that wasnt on a box. - John Dykstra Quotes
Digital imaging has untied our hands with regards to technical limitations. We no longer have to be arbiters of technology; we get to participate in the interpretation of technology into creative content. - John Dykstra Quotes
Film, as far as Im concerned, is my area of artistic endeavor, so I never think of a movie that gets released as being all done-its just when they took it away from you. - John Dykstra Quotes
George Lucas wanted this moving camera for all of the photography in Star Wars. He was willing to take a risk with the concepts that I advanced with regard to ways for doing that. - John Dykstra Quotes
I had done a lot of rock n roll photography when I was in college. I was one of many photographers who worked for The Doors, Jefferson Airplane, and all of these rock n roll bands. - John Dykstra Quotes
I like engineering, but I love the creative input. - John Dykstra Quotes
I was involved in the color correction and the digital color correction. In an odd way, you end up making a film many times-the DVD, the archival record of a high-definition master, and so on. - John Dykstra Quotes
If you can imagine it, we can make it. - John Dykstra Quotes
In the first Spider-Man, at the end of the movie, Peter Parker had to deny himself a relationship with a girl that hes in love with. The very next thing that happens is that hes swinging through the city. - John Dykstra Quotes
Its an embarrassment of riches because you have directors who dont better. You end up with so much stuff going on the screen that you dont know where to look, and thats what I consider self-indulgent. - John Dykstra Quotes
Its very much like filmmaking always is-youre always asked to do something that youre not sure you know how to do. So you make an educated guess as to what you think will work and you hope between that and plan B, that you can end up with a product thats really good. - John Dykstra Quotes
Once the image was in the digital environment, one of the problems was, we had no means to reproduce the color spectrum, grey scale, and contrast that film produces, without converting the digital file to film, evaluating it, then going back and changing the digital image. - John Dykstra Quotes
We stayed there 24 hours a day. We lived and ate and slept that movie. We were enthusiastic, not just because of the movie, but because we had such a great collaborative team. We had a really good time. It was very much a family. - John Dykstra Quotes
We still get to blow some stuff up. One of the most enjoyable things about doing special effects was going out and blowing up miniatures. - John Dykstra Quotes
You had to make a camera look like its traveling at 300 mph, but you couldnt make it actually travel at 300 mph so you had to slow everything down and build devices to do that. So you were constantly engineering. - John Dykstra Quotes
