careers risk ambitious
I encourage first time filmmakers to be ambitious and take chances and risks, because you never know where your career is going to go.
humanity film
For me, with me, making a film is always about humanity.
athlete jumping ego
I'm an athlete; I've got an ego when stunt doubles have to come in. Not an ego like that, but when it comes to physical stuff, if I didn't have to have a stunt double, I would always probably do it myself unless the producers were jumping in and stopping me.
independent thumbs-up giving
Independent film making is very collaborative. You feel like it's you, the director and other actors and you really feel like you have the final say. When you do the bigger films, the studio has to give the final thumbs up and they're usually not big on risk taking because they're trying to make money.
workout couple writing
I do a lot. I don't like to sit still. I am pretty spontaneous. I like to cook a lot. I like to eat. I like to workout, surf, read, write, and create. I am always working on a couple of projects that I always have and need to put more time into.
good-movie want get-up
Watching a really good movie excites me, because it makes we want to get up off the couch and go shoot something and act in a scene.
deep-affection bay-area born
I was born and raised in the Bay Area. It's the place I got a deep, deep affection for.
