I Believe That Anything In This World

Be Really Picky With Your Hiring, And Hire The Absolute Best People You Possibly Can. People Are The Most Important Component Of Almost Every Business, And Attracting The Best Talent Possible Is Going To Make A Huge Difference.

I Believe That Anything In This World Is Fair Game For A Creative Exercise.

I'm Much More Collaborative Than I Probably Was When I Was First Starting, Much More Willing To Say, "i Don't Know The Answer To That." I Have Really Talented People And Let Them Do Their Jobs And Not Try To Control Everything As Much As I Did When I Was Starting. I Was A Bit More Insecure.

I Think Musicians Oftentimes Have The Right Skill Set To Be Good Actors. And With Rihanna, I Noticed Her And Knew Of Her Obviously, And Was Very Taken With Her Charisma And Her Confidence.

I Had Great Luck With Tim Mcgraw Twice In 'friday Night Lights' And 'the Kingdom.' I Love Finding Off-beat Casting And Finding Someone You Know In One Way And You Reinvent Them In Another Way. I Like Doing That As A Director.
