Understanding this quote
The speaker says filmmaking should be a journey of discovery, not merely the execution of a fixed plan. New discoveries can give a movie life and value. Without that sense of exploration, the result may be a “dog”—a dull or unsuccessful film. The quote presents discovery as an important test of whether the movie-making process is worthwhile.
