I'd Like To Think That We Strive

Mountaineering Has Always Been A Huge Hobby Of Mine.

When You Come Out Of The Other End Of A Long Process, Working With A Character [you Realize] This Character Has Really Shaped My Ideas.

I Have A Great Interest In Victorian Musical & Cabaret Performances And Weimar Artists So The References Are There, To Cabaret And Also All That Jazz And Other Films Where, Where There's A Kind Of (influential German Playwright Bertolt) Brecht-ian Approach, Almost To The Character Standing Outside Of Himself Or, In This Case, He's "self-séance-ing."

[greek] Theater Started Off And Used Masks And Kabuki, In The East, They Used Mask-work. And Then, Commedia Dell'arte In Italy And Then, You Know, We're Part Of An Acting Tradition And, And Performance Capture Is No Different.

I Love Playing Real Characters... If They're Not Around Anymore It's Helpful Because You Won't Get Sued! But There's So Much Research Involved And I Love That Part Of The Process.
