As far as working with actors, I feel very comfortable working in that aspect of directing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Working with actors really depends on the actor. Most of the directors I've worked with don't really know how to speak to actors, actually; some of the best directors don't.
As a director, you see something in someone; you know it's there, you just got to go get it. You do that with any actor. That's your job.
Having a director who is also an actor makes for that very relaxed way of working and it's empowering.
I approach directing from an actor's standpoint.
Directing a film requires a different set of skills. It is a difficult job, and I am happy being an actor.
As an actor, I love working with directors. As much as I love working with other actors.
I just love working with actors in general.
I think acting really helps as a director. It's just no question, because you totally understand the acting process.
I don't know what directing actors is all about apart from just casting well and then shaping their performances a bit, you know.
Directing remains very psychological, and it takes a lot of time and reflection. When you're an actor, it takes less time, and you can express yourself physically.
