With all the craziness that's been going on as of late I get such a strong feeling of nostalgia remembering the times I would watch Spieldberg's amazing pictures when they first came out, like the original Jurassic Park as an example. Man, good times!
The problem is that man went away to make SCHINDLER'S LIST and never came back. He was different forever and never managed to get back to that same headspace he used to have. The closest he ever got to being his old self was THE TERMINAL, which was more Capra than Spielberg, which may have been why it worked.
What gets me with Spielberg is how humble he is and willing to share. Also, his respect he has for those who told the stories in the past. Thank you for this video.
When I was kid, wanting to write stories and make movies, Steven Spielberg was my idol, and I was lucky to catch a glimpse of him on TV being interviewed about his newest movie. When DVD came along, I got to know him a little bit more with the bonus extras and interviews. Now, thanks to UA-cam, Spielberg is my mentor. I can literally sit here and watch video after video, for hours on end, learning from the greatest living director of all time speak like he's still a child living with total awe and inspiration.
One with so much to give both behind and in front of the camera. I relish the authenticity of his every comment - as I have relished his every movie to date. Spielberg reminds us not only of what we can(not) see in this world ... but of what we can be! Inspirational. Footnote: bravo to the editor too, on your work
Wow, I adore Steven so much. We all can relate to him especially when he describes his childhood. Thanks for assembling all these icons for us writers who are struggling in one way or another. Steven is my favorite as all his stories have such heart.
Filmmaking is hard, but Spielberg makes it as easy as it can be. I´m convinced that this is so because all the myriad crew who help him realize his works (who he tends to employ from film to film) don´t make doing so any more difficult than it has to be. The basis of this is _mutual respect._ Believe me, there are a _lot_ of stories of _productions from hell_ in Tinseltown. He doesn´t need to worry about this.
For the community experience of an audience sitting in a darkened theatre that you brought up- brings a memory of the late 1970s, with my parents and I sitting in a second-run movie theatre and watching the Sean Connery James Bond classic, "From Russia with Love." Part way into to film- in the projection room something happened and the film lost all sound. When the problem couldn't be fixed, the manager offered all in the audience a refund for their ticket. But some decided to stay anyway- including me and my parents. I will never forget the audience participation: When Connery mysteriously came up with a ship's Captain hat while steering a small craft- someone in the audience yelled "Where the hell did he get that hat?"//But the Ultimate remark of the evening was when the villain of the piece- a women who wore a shoe that she could eject from the toe an attached, poisoned blade she killed people with; when she finally met her end near the picture's conclusion, her face looked as if uttering this loud, painful shriek with mouth wide open while she slowly crouched/fell to the floor- one wit in the audience yelled out "I'm melting!" Four decades later...and I still remember it and the audience reaction
Steven Spielberg's Schindler's list was the first black & white movie I saw from start to finish in once. And man it was a experience it was just so moving and heart crussing No surprise black and white movies have the norm because it enhances the story and performances
On tip #20, Spielberg used a similar technique when choosing his victims in the movie "Jaws." The first victim was unknown to Brody and was somewhere she wasn't supposed to be at that time of day. From that point, each victim was someone closer and closer to Brody, culminating in Quint. Lastly, Brody was threatened by the shark. Sometimes, the threat comes geographically "closer and closer," such as walking up a flight of stairs toward the victim behind a door.
I wanna see a TV series about young Speilberg's time sneaking into Universal. It could be half-real, half-fiction, but all fun and delightful. He could even produce it since it'd be off of his memory.
At 16:27 Steven talks about how the voice that tells you, "This is who you are, and this is what you are supposed to do, comes as a whisper, not a shout." He refers to is as intuition, or gut. From the story of Elijah, we learn that God speaks to us in "the whisper": The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. 13 When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave. Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” (1 Kings 19:11-13, NIV) What we call our inner voice, our conscience, our intuition is really our Creator saying, "This is the way, walk in it. This is the purpose for which I created you. Becoming the person I created you to be is where true happiness comes. Doing what I created you to do is where true satisfaction comes. Walking through life hand in hand with me is where true belonging, love and security comes from. Just say, Yes, to Me and listen for My whispers. I still speak."
I met him. I saw him walk past my market stall. He stood at the edge of the market, with his wife Kate, and I couldn't really believe my eyes. I decided I would go up to him and tell him how much he looked like Steven Spielberg. His wife gave a look, but I clung to the pretense that allowed me to approach him. It was quite a moment. I would have told him I've seen The Color Purple around 50 times.
Schindler's List. This movie alone earned Steven Spielberg the honor of being one of the greatest directors in the history of motion pictures. There are maybe 3 other films over the last 100 years that have been as brave a commitment to telling the honest story of the human race.
I'd like to know more about his technique. Most of the stuff he made he didn't write but he talks a lot coming up with a story and things related. I can see him running with a good idea someone gives him, maybe that's what's he's talking about. Or maybe he puts together a rough sketch of a story and a screenwriter runs with that.

Oh please. Why don't the European directors have massive blockbusters like he does. Everyone know him all over the world, but no one knows your European directors.
At 24, Stephen Spielberg had already forgotten more about making great pictures than all the professors at all the universities of the whole world would ever learn.
Here’s a marketing tip for you, Steve: Don’t wag your finger at 90 percent of the country and say they should know how to speak Spanish. Doing that will cause your movie to flop.
It was actually better that way. Maybe on streaming sights wss would have needed subtitles but in the theatre it’s better to just let them speak Spanish without needing to translate it
Bro! You're crazy in thinking his films are terribly edited! Look at the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan or even the race scene in Ready Player One. His films are much better edited than most modern blockbuster releasing right now.

Raiders, E.T. , Jaws, Temple of Doom, Private Ryan, Jurassic Park, Schindler's list, Close Encounters, Last Crusade, Empire of the sun
My hero. A true filmmaker for all times. Perhaps he is the most important filmmaker we have or have ever had.
The Adventures of Tintin, Jaws, E.T, Minority Report, Saving Private Ryan, Jurassic Park. Movies I genuinely loved.
Hey again
@@sonnov0 forgive me, I've kind of forgotten you. Would you please remind me of my previous interaction with you?
@@sonnov0 wait, never mind. Hello.
I love you Spielberg so much! E.T. Jurassic Park, jaws, saving private Ryan, all masterpieces!👏👏
Well E.T is not basically Spielberg's idea. This is the origin story and idea of Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray.
"..As close to the feeling of flying i evet had"
Now that is passion and true love for writing
could listen to him talk about movies for hours on end.

Tip 3 is where every artist should start. Still one of the greatest director working in Hollywood today.

This is going to be a awesome video. I hope you do more tv writing videos. I really enjoyed them.

Every time you watched a Spielberg masterpiece you knew you where watching a masterpiece of atmosphere
My whole life he has inspired me. such a hero. Now i am getting closer than ever to achieving my goal of being a filmmaker and stuntman.
I love Empire of the Sun a lot! and E.T., of course Jurassic Park and Back to the Future! :) I love Steven's use of light in his films.
Steven is a #MasterofCinema

I love that Steven seems to be yelling in those West Side Story interviews lol
Superb. They should have 1 million views
He is delightful to listen to.
He is very much the kid that never got over his parents breaking up.
I have not really fully explored Spielberg’s work, I have only watched Jurassic park and Catch me if you can!

I loved ET só much
Schindler's List.

Well E.T is not basically Spielberg's idea. This is the origin story and idea of Indian filmmaker Satyajit Ray.
Well, yes.....but Spielberg's technique of making the film reigns supreme.

Do you think Spielberg will write another script soon?
6:00
He learned everything that he knows from European directors.
Oh please. Why don't the European directors have massive blockbusters like he does. Everyone know him all over the world, but no one knows your European directors.
3 minutes in Spielberg repeats himself. Who’s editing this?
❤❤❤❤❤❤xxxx

Tip to you mate.Use subtitles in your films ha ha
15 is missed

Anyone see the guy in the crowd picking his nose?
Here’s a marketing tip for you, Steve: Don’t wag your finger at 90 percent of the country and say they should know how to speak Spanish. Doing that will cause your movie to flop.
Are we going to pretend that that one guy wasn't digging deep in his nose for gold nuggets?
Skull&bones matety s💀
Scribe on 🥃
Ahahaha
Spielberg is brilliant, but he fell on his face with that Woke position of not including subtitles in Romeo and Juliet, as common sense required.
Funny considering Saving Private Ryan also doesn't have subtitles and that came out 24 years ago
He's done this before in Saving Private Ryan and Schindler's List as well. Idk how is it woke if he's done it in the past.
@@yorickmoran4823 Exactly
It was actually better that way. Maybe on streaming sights wss would have needed subtitles but in the theatre it’s better to just let them speak Spanish without needing to translate it
West Side Story was an absolute remarkable film, and just as good as the 1961 Wise version.
so much more disingenuous than other filmmakers. Kinda obvious that he's basically a corporation at this point.
You think he's not sincere?
@@sensitivedogs wont go that far. Definitely doesnt sound genuine.
@@TheNimdude I find he still has passion and is open to different genres. He knows his craft and has confidence.
What is he talking about ? His films are terribly written and edited. Himself needs to go back to cinema school to get some tips from young talents.
Bro! You're crazy in thinking his films are terribly edited! Look at the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan or even the race scene in Ready Player One. His films are much better edited than most modern blockbuster releasing right now.
Did you watch Schindler’s List? I think it has beautiful editing and especially writing. Just curious, who would you say is better than him?
You’re one to talk! You gotta a more outstanding portfolio than Steven Spielberg?! 😂
Criticising Spielberg on story telling, is like criticising Michael Jordan one his skills while you have no clue how basketball is played.
Please name the Spielberg movies and scenes that you mean.
Schinders list is the greatest film ever made
