Quotes by Liz Stubbs

“They get you talked about as a filmmaker. Theyll give you film life, and that will give you life as a filmmaker.”

“Mostly what I do to pay the bills is a lot of writing for corporate training films and producing those,”

“That opened the door for a lot of people who may not have thought they could make films,”

“What theyre getting out of it may not be money but experience and a credit, which they can use to get themselves a better-paying position on their next film.”

“Sometimes the things that fall through are a blessing in disguise and you find something even better,”

“That, I think, is an even more valuable experience if youre in a position to see how they put the movie together, what works and what doesnt,”

“Its just a passion,”

“[Or its just a compulsion.] Its not something you choose to do, ... You cant avoid doing it.”

“You have to beg, borrow and steal, ... You have to swallow your pride and be able to ask for help, for money. A lot of people are willing to help independent filmmakers if they think theres a chance theyre going to finish their film.”
