Sometimes I wonder if I would've been more successful if I wasn't acting and I concentrated on other things. But I love being on set. I love working with my 100 crew members.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The truth is, I just love to work. I love being on set. I love being around crews. I love being around my fellow actors. Anything that can keep that going is a joy for me.
I love being on set, because I've basically grown up on a set. And now I love to contribute as a director and help steer the ship, if you will.
I love working with actors. That's what the set really is, for me. It's my time with the actors.
I've always been very comfortable in a set environment. All the collaborating going on, seeing how actors work - it all excites me.
As an actor on sets, I've always clocked how hard the crew works, how much longer their days are, how much lesser their glory is - and the fact that their commitment to the work and project is unwavering, no matter the budget.
Honestly, I don't look at it as work because I have way too much fun on set to actually classify it as work. I know a lot of people who are like, 'Man, acting's so much work.' And I'm like, 'No, it's not. I'm having fun.' And I want to keep doing that. I don't ever want to give up acting.
As an actor... at some point you've got to forget that the crew's there in order to do your job.
I work with directors who haven't had the experience of being on sets as much as I have. I feel like, in a way, if it's an independent movie, I can teach the crew to kind of relax, or create a vibe. It really is about a vibe.
I love being on stage or in front of the camera. My work brings me a lot of joy. It helps me figure out who I am. I'm really lucky that I get to make a living at acting.
I'm acting when I serve as a hostess, when I run my wig business. I was born to act, and life itself is the greatest part.
