You have people who know you are competent enough to do your job and then you have the ones that just hover around.

As women, we're always in negotiation with how we're being perceived versus how we feel.

In my experience, directors who are the most comfortable with themselves and confident in their work give you and everybody on the crew the freedom and the space to create. It's the people who are more insecure who feel the need to control and micromanage.

You have people who know you are competent enough to do your job and then you have the ones that just hover around.

You often have a great director who's like, "Well, actually I don't even want to reveal you until the end of this scene" or something like that and it totally changes everything that you thought it was going to be.

I think when you work with really wonderful directors who have a really strong vision, it lets you as an artist set the tone for your own career.

I think the mark of a good director is that they surround themselves with good people.
