You ask any actor - they'll tell you they'd rather shoot on location because you don't have to invent the energy, the energy is there.

In narrative films, you set up reality, so you can limit the variables. You don't have that luxury with docs.

Celebrities become divas because they get pampered so much, babied so much - then they get used to it.

I'm a filmmaker, I'm a storyteller, an entertainer, if you will, so what can I do to participate? Well, I'm not a scientist; I'm not an expert on environmental law; I'm a guy that can tell stories. So I always look for a way to communicate ideas and help to spread excitement for change.

I am happy to have success in the entertainment biz, but the root of my happiness comes from my neighborhood, NYC.
