I want to change things with everything I do, not for the sake of changing things, but for the sake of taking greater and greater risks, or how minimalist I might be able to be, or how I can involve elements or ingredients in music videos that are not musical, for instance.

I don't put on my best clothes to make a film, my Sunday best.

I'm not the kind of filmmaker who's going to go from one thing to the next. I often wish I was that filmmaker, but I'm just not.

I'm really so singular, I am only able to work on one thing at a time. I really am.

You have to understand where the camera needs to me. There were times where you were suddenly aware where the cameras were, then you were in a different place and it didn't feel like the same movie.

I've never been happy doing stock work; I've never been happy thinking that I haven't changed something.

I'm Jewish. Went to a Jewish school.
