Quote:
"I'll write scripts prior to editing, or make elaborate paper edits to structure the argument I want to make, but it always changes during editing. Each shot has its own rhythm and each edit its own metre, so no matter what I want to say conceptually, I'm led primarily by mood."
-- Aleesa Cohene
