A lot of times, when I'm approaching pre-production and my job, and trying to research and work on the script and whatnot it's always different.
I love learning from the filmmakers that I'm working with, but more importantly, I love learning from the crew.
I started studying filmmakers, and I would say early on the ones that really inspired me the most were like the field magicians of music videos.
It's really interesting to observe each filmmaker's approach to filmmaking and I feel very fortunate to have worked with a lot of really interesting filmmakers and they all approach their job in unique ways.
You're not really just a filmmaker that makes a movie good most of the time. It's everybody involved; it's a collective effort.
You can't print everything and that's not good for filmmaking, because you wanna have as many options as possible and print as much as you can, but if you're going to shoot a film - an independent movie on film, the only way to really do it is to print your selects.
A lot of times I'm on my own trying to find research material and things like that and trying to educate myself on the world and the film that I'm working on.
The filmmakers that I studied and appreciated growing up are the ones that are able to dictate their vision clearly to each department, and they know the language of how to communicate with each department well enough, so that their vision is clearly transferred to the screen. So I like to spend time on sets learning from all of the departments and seeing how they approach their jobs. It's not just filmmakers, you know? There's so many mediums involved. I love learning about all of the mediums.
Film is a collection of many mediums and collaboration and you're only as strong as the people you're working with - and everybody owns their mediums.
I’d say a man is someone who is honest, strong-minded, moral, genuine, just a good human being.
I just want to make sure I'm contributing good films to movie history rather than being famous just to be famous.
The Goonies' is classic. That's, like, the movie I bring with me if I go out of town for a long time, because it just makes me think of the best times I've seen it with my friends growing up. Dude, everybody knows that movie, everybody watches that film. Best family film ever made.
When filming, I like to travel with an instrument.
I want to be a good actor more than anything - someone you can respect.
