Episode: Casino Night Revisited w/ Ken Kwapis
Ken Kwapis's book was mentioned and described as a great resource for aspiring directors or anyone interested in the process of directing. It was recommended for its insights into directing philosophy and experiences.
He has a book coming out. It is called But What I Really Want to Do Is Direct Lessons from a Life Behind the Camera.
Oh, please, guys, if you're an aspiring director, if you want to know more about just the experience of what it's really like to direct, please pick up Ken's book.
But also, I mean, there's so much about your philosophy in this book that could really just be applied to life in general.
Action is what most directors bark out to begin a scene. But Ken Kwapis starts by gently intoning the words 'go ahead'. That simple suggestion assures everyone they're in smart, capable, humble hands. And that's how you'll feel reading his book.
And so if you're anxious to discover how a top director always brings humor, honesty and humanity to his work, all I can tell you is go ahead.
