Sundance filmmakers: How technology is changing the way films are made

"We can take pictures on a location with the framing, focal length, and aspect ratio desired. We can track the sun path in a location. The possibilities are endless."
"I think the move to voice-activated computing is going to be huge in the future. If I can dictate what I want instead of having to type, touch or drag a mouse around... I’ll have more time to focus and just be creative."
"What I hope for is that the tools reach a point where they're almost transparent. They just allow us to have that 'paintbrush on the canvas' kind of feel."
"The amount of footage that directors are able to shoot is incredible. The upside is it allows for so many options in post. The downside is often media management."
"Technology buys us time where I'm able to communicate with my crew, instantly and in different locations."
"It opens up so much more that you can do when you don't have to be location independent. It frees up the budget to put more right back into the creative."
