Acting is a creative process, and directing and music. I think creative people - and I take myself as a creative person and it doesn't mean you have to be an actor, a musician, or a painter - but I think if you are in a creative profession or a creative business you do have a heightened awareness.

Things have changed so much now. Everything is downloaded onto computers. I'm not a computer-savvy guy, but with downloading the movie industry has changed.

When I direct I try to keep it a unique design of my own. Naturally you're influenced.

I became an actor because I didn't know what else to do. Academically, I wasn't good.

I always had a knack for improvisation. I can write down the notes I play, but never really had a proper academic musical background. I suppose I'm blessed and cursed by the fact I have that freedom.

My life turned out to be beyond my greatest dreams.

The reward is in the doing of it.
