armstrong fascinated favorite generation neil saw shows time tv walk
Space fascinated me because I'm from the generation that saw Neil Armstrong walk on the moon live on TV. I was 7 at the time. Also, 'Lost in Space' was one of my favorite shows on TV back then.
fewer great
There are fewer established rules in the way you tell a story for commercials than in features. It's a great little short story you get to play with.
princess littles would-be
If I would rescue one of my movies, it would be 'A Little Princess.'
ipods dancing sound
I have my set rigged with the biggest sound system possible and have a mini jack for my iPod attached to my director's chair. I find playing music is a very direct way to communicate with actors and the crew, especially those crew members who are on the periphery of the set. I like dancing on set too, it's a good way to release tension.
