For Me, Making A Movie Is Kind

I Just Haven't Let Myself Get To A Place Where I've Felt A Part Of Any Kind Of A Community, So I've Always Stayed Outside Of It.

I've Never Been Into Alternative, Hipster Rap Music.

A Lot Of Times You Can Write A Scene With A Specific Song In Mind, And Then You Lay It Over The Image, And It Kills It. I Can Never Figure Out Why Certain Music Works. Some Music You Listen To And Say, "man, That Would Be Great For A Movie." But When You Try It, It's Horrible, Because The Music Itself Is Cinematic. The Weight Of It Kills The Image.

Directing, To Me, Starts Even Before We Get To The Set. Directing Is A Fluid, An Abstract Thing. It's Not Done Only Purely In The Moment. It's An Idea That You Plant Before. It's A Location That You Show. It's Something I Whisper In Someone's Ear. It's A Freeform Thing. It Only Takes Me A Week To Write The Script, But It's Years That You're Thinking About It. The Execution Is Really The Fast Part.

I See Things In A Specific Way. All The Films Are Different. There Are Specific Characters And Scenes And Locations And Ideas. There Are Colors I Want To See. There Are Movements And Things ... The Films Are Different, But The Approach Is The Same.
