Cinema Quote by Oneohtrix Point Never

“Growing up, I wanted to write films and make films. Even as I took this detour and stayed in the music world, I still think in terms of 'What is in this room? What is the shot? Who are the characters? What is the conversation here?' My sense of pacing is very filmlike, it's not musical.” quote by Oneohtrix Point Never — Download Open image
