I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer.

You can kind of feel when things are going to work out

All I need is a camera and I'll make things happen

I have been a director who has starred, participated on both sides of the filmmaking process.

My brothers can be a little out of control sometimes and so somebody has to be able to keep them focused.

I go through a whole process with the actors first, building and creating characters, then I encourage them to sort of live in that character when they're in the screen.

I think that if you, as a comedian, are trying to be in people's face, then you've got to come up with new stuff every year. We're in a mass consumption phase where people take things for granted and want things to be instant when these are not things that can be instant.
