I see people growing more and more isolated in their lives. It's not like it's a new thing, but it's more preoccupying now as you can do so many things without leaving your home. You can work, shop, do everything from home, and I find this unsettling.

I did the drawing and writing - for five years. I made a lot of short films the whole while and I made a promise to myself in front of the mirror that I would stop drawing when I signed my first contract for a feature film.

Sometimes it only takes three words, so long as they're the right words, to direct an actor in the right way.

Love stories that are too simple don't deserve to have films made about them.

Working with a bunch of actors is like trying to tune each violin.

But I won't work with the exact same crew film after film because I feel the work would get a little complacent.

I think the best thing I learned from drawing comics is that it's a great exercise in concision.
