Quote
1
There are directors who believe that actors should be completely submissive to them. Others greatly rely on their actors to be their active collaborators. I place myself midway between these two extremes, guiding and not dictating to my actors. - Quoted from her interview on Inq7.Net, June 16, 2003
2
I am also particular about script quality. I want the storytelling to be as natural and fluid as possible. Although there are conventional plots in a melodrama, I try to inject realism and logic in the stories we present. Believability is important when it comes to plots and characters... It's as if your characters are alive and you aren't pushing them around, but following them. - Quoted from her interview on Inq7.Net, June 16, 2003

No particular style yet. Influences? ...the sum of all the influences of the directors I have worked with, like Lino Brocka, Mel Chionglo, Gil Portes, Marilou Diaz-Abaya, Ishmael Bernal and Laurice Guillen. I like the way they motivate their actors. - Quoted from her interview on Inq7.Net, June 16, 2003

I want to make a movie about relationships, probably a family drama or a love story. I love character-driven rather than plot-based stories. Given a choice, I prefer experimental to formulaic movies. I would be happy tackling realism, be it neo, social or magic! - Quoted from her interview on Inq7.Net, June 16, 2003
