types
To be honest, I enjoy all different types of films and experiences.
consumed time whenever
Whenever I am acting, it's everything, you know. If I'm researching a role, I'm completely consumed in that and, between action and cut, I live in this suspended time.
agent entered
When I was a teenager, me and a couple of my friends entered a couple of modeling competitions just for fun, and one of those got me an agent in Sydney.
beats fascinated
I got into DJing and making beats when I was about 17. I was always fascinated by the four elements of hip-hop: you know, writing, rhyming, breakdancing and graffiti.
children thinking dysfunction
I think as a child you know when it's time for your parents to split. You realise they love each other, but they're not in love with each other. And I think as a child it's much better for your parents to split than for them to stay and have dysfunction within the family.
creative actors fame
I wasn't interested in fame or fortune. I was interested in being an actor and being creative. I was very adamant about that.
childhood
I had an amazing childhood.
people instruments
A lot of people I make music with are really talented and it doesn't stop at one instrument.
color choices care
Making a movie is, for me, like painting. I just enjoy the care that goes into every brushstroke and the choice of every color. I enjoy the intensity of it.
stars growing-up night
Growing up on a farm was the best. I remember loving that expanse of space. The sky at night was so clear, I could see every star.
positive-thinking thinking
Something I've noticed as I get older is that I do think about the future more. It's all positive thinking.
rap years crew
I've been rapping since I was 18 years old, with a crew called Blades.
dream
I've got heaps of dreams.
real real-life optimist
In real life, I'm pretty much an eternal optimist.
