I made a deal with myself that whenever I smoke weed, I have to be doing something productive: writing, recording, cutting a podcast, editing, etc.

I didn't get into film to win Academy Awards. I wanted to have a conversation with the audience.

Whenever I'm not shooting, I'm in the editing room with my footage. While the crew is taking 15 minutes to an hour to set up the next shot, I'm behind the Avid, putting the flick together.

We love dirty oral on the Down Low, but no going steady.

For years, my job was to make the movie inexpensively. And I could bring it in. What I can't control are the costs of marketing.

More often than not, a hero’s most epic battle is the one you never see; it’s the battle that goes on within him or herself.

I've always kind of ripped from real life to some degree or at least how I'm feeling in the moment. In fact, maybe that's really it. In anything I've ever written, all the characters sound like me, which I don't think is a bad thing.
