My whole thing was, as much as I was inspired by what my parents do, and growing up on film sets, watching that made me really want to do that. I am my own person, and I think that the only thing with the Hemingway name is that it has gotten me in the door.

Dree Hemingway

A lot of directors prefer the solitude of the editing process, but I revel in the craziness of what a film set is.

Alan Parker

People think that theatre helps, but in my case, it slowed me down. I had to unlearn everything when I went on to a film set.

Ali Fazal

I grew up on film sets but more around the process of making films. I saw a lot of the editing process and the writing process, which takes years. That really affected me growing up, that side of it.

Alice Englert

What I realised is, watching some old home videos, I've always had a weird accent. It's because I spent a lot of time on film sets. But Australia will always be home... I sound like the Qantas ad, don't I?

Alice Englert

A film set is really delicate and people treat you very very well if you're an actor because they want you to be as comfortable as possible for you to do your work, but it really is just one in a team of many and usually 150 people.

Amanda Seyfried

I don't feel that fear is a good incentive on a film set.

Andrew Lincoln

A lot of actors on film sets... very often they're not paying attention to the physical world around them. I think through studying art, I've always had that awareness and that's something that I've wanted to bring in to go beyond acting... As a form of expression, they are intrinsically linked.

Andy Serkis

Though I was born in a cricketing family and played Under 16 and Under 19 cricket for Delhi, my heart was always in cinema. Even while I was playing cricket, I was day dreaming about how it would be to stand on a film set saying lines.

Angad Bedi

Some people manage to make that transition from child actor to adult actor seamlessly. But I felt that if I spent my whole life on a film set without taking a few years to do something else, all I would ever know about was film sets.

Anna Popplewell

On a film set everyone is very cool. Well, blase really.

Anthony Daniels

In India, film sets are like a family atmosphere.

Anupam Kher

Every morning when I wake up, I am grateful and happy that I come to the film set. It is home.

Arjun Kapoor

I didn't start out thinking that I could ever make films. I started out being a film lover, loving films, and wanting to have a job that put me close to them and close to filmmakers and close to film sets.

Ava DuVernay

There is so much to do on a film set. It is an extraordinarily invigorating and wonderful place to be, when things are running well.

Ben Kingsley

There was one titanic guiding light on the film set, and I was in the presence of a true Mahatma, in the deepest and most profound sense of the word.

Ben Kingsley

In film, I find it very useful always to do some preparation before you start rehearsals or start shooting, because there's so much that's against you on a film set.

Ben Whishaw

A lot of the time, excess on a film set is just damaging.

Bennett Miller

I spent a lot of time on film sets with my dad at work, and as a kid, that's a very appealing thing, to watch grownups get to play dress-up and pretend that they're different people - and then get paid for it!

Bill Skarsgard

The great thing about having spent all this time on film sets is that I've been able to watch directors and how they work. I now know that this is what I want to do as well: to tell stories visually. But it's definitely my vision that I want to put across, nobody else's.

Catherine McCormack

I get terrified the first day I'm on a film set. I get nervous walking down a red carpet. I find making speeches the most terrifying thing in the world.

Catherine Zeta-Jones
