Shooting at night in Los Angeles is amazing. The city shuts down at 10 P.M. every night, and a whole different cast of characters comes out.
A script like Nightcrawler gives me an opportunity to truly realize a vision thats mine, which is exciting.
A lot of times, L.A. is desaturated, and cement and freeways, and downtown.
I had written a script called "Freed," which I had wanted to direct.
