I Know What It Means To Be

I Grew Up Going To School And High School And Then Shooting A Movie For A Few Months. It's An Odd Way To Grow Up And Is Kind Of Forced Maturity.

I Don't Get The Jitters And I Don't Get Nervous, Because I Build That Comfort On Set For Myself. Sometimes If I'm Gonna Do Something Really Crazy, It Helps Me To Yell Or Look Like An Idiot On Set, So That When I'm About To Do A Scene, I've Already Embarrassed Myself. I Find Ways To Work Around Getting The Jitters.

When I Receive A New Role, I Completely Become My Character.

It Is Obvious When An Actor Has Put Work Into Prep And Research And Understanding Their Character, And They're Making Choices, Because That's What Happens When You Take The Time - Or Have The Time - To Really Think About The Material, But That Only Accounts For About 60% Of What Happens On The Day. When You're In The Moment, You Throw It All Away. Well, You Don't Throw It All Away, But It's In You Now, And Everything Is Reactionary In That Moment And You Have To Be Honest And Present And Listening.

I'm Not Someone Who Works A Lot, And What I Mean By That Is That I Have A Project And I Focus On It, And I Don't Spread Myself Too Thin. I Try To Give As Much As I Can To That Project, And If We Have A Lot Of Time, That's Amazing For Me, Because I Like To Really Dive Deep And Do As Much As I Can.
