Style?

“Well, I tend to approach filmmaking rather like an inventor – searching out what others have overlooked – finding unusual methods to build the usual presentation. And in doing so, continually get reminded that I can do nothing without Christ. I’ve been greatly privileged to have worked with so many talented people and meet so many accomplished experts in various fields.”— Benjamin Owen
