We don't work in the traditional TV format where we're like writing concurrently to shooting. Like, we really view it as a large feature film.

You can be a lot more subtle on TV, which is funny because I feel like TV is known for being the opposite of that. The thing we experience in life is that things are not overly dramatic, and things often happen in really small ways.

I went to film school at UT Austin. I learned a lot and that school's good for puking up all your bad movies early and quick. But ultimately, no one can teach you to be an artist.

Our brains will destroy ourselves if we don't put it outward.

The worst question really comes from the attitude of the asker and it usually comes in the form of "What was your inspiration for the film?"

Most people in Hollywood are making about 10 percent of all the things they're considering; I am making 95 percent.

Everyone I know who is having success in film right now is there because of persistence.
