<p><span style="font-weight: 400">We recently caught up with Velvet Datsopoulou about some of her go-to points to remember when being a filmmaker. Here is what she had to say:</span></p>
<p><b>What type of research do you do to prepare for each project you work on?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">I usually research on the internet, travel and I watch a lot of films and documentaries that relate to the subject.</span></p>
<p><b>Do you like to sometimes work in the spur of the moment when you are on a project, or are you a person that is a perfectionist?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">I am both. I am very spontaneous with my ideas when it comes to work, but I am very detailed, so I make sure I am as close to perfection as possible. </span></p>
<p><b>Sometimes certain films are left unedited in some scenes, to give a more realistic touch. Do you also like this concept?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">I do like this concept and I feel people are more attracted to movies that are the closet to reality.</span></p>
<p><b>Who is one of your favorite filmmakers at the moment and why?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Alejandro González Iñárritu. I love his parallel cinematic style in his movies and how they all feel very real. </span></p>
<p><b>What is one of your favorite films at the moment?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">‘A Star is Born’, Lady Gaga shined. </span></p>
<p><b>Who is one of your favorite actors right now?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Rami Malek.</span></p>
<p><b>What do you feel is the key to being an excellent filmmaker?</b></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400">Choosing the right aesthetics of the scenes and the dialogue.</span></p>
