You have to have an idea of what you are going to do, but it should be a vague idea.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think as a director you have to make it your own. It'd be a mistake to approach a project with the idea of 'I'm going to do this the way I think somebody else would,' because then you'd never be clear on your idea.
I just write what comes along. I don't have a detailed master plan.
But I do have an idea in my head before I go in about what I'm going to do.
Don't undertake a project unless it is manifestly important and nearly impossible.
You just have to have the guidance to lead you in the direction until you can do it yourself.
When you come up with a good idea, you don't have to do a whole lot. The idea does it for you.
Tell everyone what you want to do and someone will want to help you do it.
If you want to get across an idea, wrap it up in person.
The best way to have a good idea is to have a lot of ideas.
Anything you can do needs to be done, so pick up the tool of your choice and get started.
