In my beginnings, those nos were ever-present-even today, those nos are ever-present-and it's the workaround. I always found a workaround for people who turned their back to me. It's a way of being persistent that makes them take notice.

I think we all have a love/hate relationship with the media.

If you work on network TV, they want to pick your casts, dictate your story and how your show works. It just becomes creativity by committee, which is never good.

Some people are probably saner. They're good performers, and they go about their day. I just get obsessive about it.

I think the story should always determine the visual approach. There are situations where you want things to feel alive and like life, and there are situations that should have some magic and the separation with the grain.

If anything is leaking, I try to plug the hole.

I don't think there's really observational magic.
