The idea of working with David Fincher or Paul Thomas Anderson or Wes Anderson or Scorsese or Spielberg or any of the guys I really idolize is a dream for me.

I would love to shoot on film, but you can't really shoot a lot of footage on film, and you can't print a lot of it.

I want to be a good actor more than anything - someone you can respect.

I'd say people that really inspired me at first were like, Dustin Hoffman, Jim Carrey... serious Jim Carrey though.

I'm always in the theater seeing everything, good or bad.

You're not really just a filmmaker that makes a movie good most of the time. It's everybody involved; it's a collective effort.

It's my passion, that's what I wanna do, it's the end goal, that's what I crave every second of the day is to be working on a production but also to be the person leading the production and guiding the pacing of the storytelling.
