great
Working with a great actor is really educational.
learn movies says side technical theatre watch
I didn't go to film school. My Grampa always says just watch a lot of movies. He didn't go to film school; he went to theatre school. It's interesting to learn about the technical side of it, but I think it's more important to learn about writing and working with actors.
figures figuring human lives pivotal realize
I just remember that pivotal moment when you're a young adult, and you realize that these authority figures are human beings, too, and they're figuring out their lives just as you are, and they're flawed.
love mom orange smells
I love Serge Lutens orange blossom perfume; my mom got it for me. It's my favorite. It just smells clean.
bring ideas interested love meet outside people whatever
I think when you do things outside of what you're interested in, you meet people and get ideas to bring in to whatever it is you love doing the most.
bad considered
I went to a private school, and I struggled academically. It was really disheartening to always be considered bad at that.
access anyone stuff viewers
Anyone can create and put stuff out there, so then as viewers and listeners, we have access to a lot of different unique view points.
mascara
I don't really wear makeup. I don't like the feeling of it. I just put mascara on, and that's kind of it.
art clothes create seeing
I enjoy seeing how my friends - Proenza Schouler, Zac Posen, Rodarte - use clothes to create their vision and art.
playing-music
I liked to drive around, just playing music for everyone.
actors environment working-it
Ive always been very comfortable in a set environment. All the collaborating going on, seeing how actors work - it all excites me.
photography dad littles
I guess I knew my dad was into photography, so a part of me was interested in picking it up to understand him a little better.
felt
When I graduated, I felt a little burned out on taking pictures after so many years of churning out so many for classes.
mum preserved sad time weird
When I went to college, my mum was really sad, so she preserved my bedroom, like a weird time capsule.
