As a filmmaker, I've had films that over-achieved and I've had films that under-achieved. You always go in trying to do your very best.

It's a world creation show [Shadowhunters], so we've gotta work hard in the physical production capacity with the visual effects, the sets and everything. It's not just the real world with two people chatting in a diner. That's tough on a television budget.

When you're an actor, you show up and it's wonderful because you're in the world of make-believe.

It's always fun watching new actors and new voices come out.

What's better these days, television or film? It's a dead heat. In fact, one could argue for television with more regularity.

I just think it's ridiculous to be dogmatic and be caught in the past. You have to be open, aware, nimble and flexible about changes in the world.

The days of holding the audience captive to watching television at times that programmers tell them they have to watch it are coming to an end. It's a new world, where the viewer and fan wants to watch whatever they want to watch, whenever they want to watch it.
