I consider myself an independent filmmaker.

My biggest fear in life is to be average.

There are scenes that were right on the edge, but I always try to err on non-indulgence. It's something that I'm very careful about, that I'm just leaning too hard into something.

My philosophy is to make movies with the biggest possible budget that will allow it to be made in an independent fashion.

People break down into two groups. When they experience something lucky, group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence. They see it as a sign, evidence, that there is someone up there, watching out for them. Group number two sees it as just pure luck. Just a happy turn of chance.

I'm super confident about creative stuff, and I'm really not confident about human interactions stuff.

You don't have your film finished when you have your director's cut finished. It's just a bunch of green screen.
