Short film: you can be poetic and you don't have to answer anything. You can make whatever you want. You have creative freedom with short film.

Also with that money comes the idea, "Let your imagination run wild." Which I think is a very dangerous thing. I think it's dangerous because you can get into pretty wacky territory. There are things that are too crazy.

A feature film is an expansion of budget, stress, story, hours, time, workload, everything.

Hitler rounded up all of the vampires in Europe.

I have to keep reminding myself that I was hired for a reason and one of those reasons is because of the stories I tell and the films I've made previously.

I love heroes that really go through ordeals and then come out the other end completely changed.

There are lots of parts of filmmaking that I don't like. At the end of the day, especially on features, the film turns into a commodity. You have to play this entirely new game I'm very uncomfortable with.
