John Woo & Logik Timur

Apabila Sifu menerangkan tentang perbezaan teknik menulis biasa dengan KJ Method, beliau ada menyebutnya sebagai perbezaan antara logik barat dengan logik timur. Teknik menulis biasa ditulis secara linear sedang dengan KJ Method penulis mempunyai kebebasan untuk menggarap karya dengan aturan tersendiri.

Logik barat juga bermakna kita harus mengikut betul-betul rangka atau pelan yang telah direncana lebih awal. Logik timur dalam KJ Method pula membolehkan kita mengubah dan menyusun babak-babak serta elemen-elemen secara modular.

Pengarah terkenal di Timur dan Barat - John Woo mengakui perbezaan ini:

Woo says he greatly appreciates the opportunity to work in Hollywood, and relished the chance to work with actors such as John Travolta, Nicolas Cage and Tom Cruise, and especially the friends he has made. But he admits that he gets less space for creativity there, and that he has to work strictly according to the script, budget and time.

“When we got on the set, we just executed it,” he explains

“Usually I like to work with the set. Whenever I get some new ideas, I just change things right away, like how I used to do it in Hong Kong. That’s why I wanted to come back to China to make a movie which I have been dreaming of making for a long time.”
