I have been a director who has starred, participated on both sides of the filmmaking process.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I view filmmaking as a director's medium.
I think I'm drawn to films more as a director with a directorial mind even as an actor. I make movies to make the films, not to act.
I don't think there is a movie that I've been on that I wasn't sure I could direct it better. But certainly also, as a director of photography, I have to serve the movie in whatever way I can as a filmmaker.
I had never thought of myself as a director and found out that I was not. I am a writer who was able to direct the films that I write.
I have worked with some great directors.
I look for the role that excites me and work with whoever that director happens to be, wherever he wants to shoot the film.
There are all kinds of directors I want to work with and all kinds of films that I want to do.
I don't run after successful directors. I give importance to the content of the film.
I don't have a director. The audience directs me.
I was an audience member before I'm a filmmaker. All I've tried to do as a filmmaker was to make movies I want to see.
