I like to keep my budgets at a certain price when I work for someone else, and even more so now that I'm working for myself, and use new technologies to deliver films that look like they have high production levels.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A lot of people want to make films and do photography and things, but I'm quite happy doing what I'm doing.
I've been blessed with enough wealth that I can make a film myself up to a certain budget. So one way I thought I would reinvent myself was just to make these very small, personal films that I've financed myself.
I like the opportunity to make films.
I try to make two movies a year. To me, that's not too much. On top of that, I like to work.
As long as you keep your budgets small, there's a way of making films.
I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
I've worked on films where the budgets are almost limitless and you're in trailers that are bigger than a hotel room. You're taken care of and the food is amazing, the quality of the job is amazing and then you work on smaller things but it never dictates my happiness or my willingness to go to work.
I'm so not interested in producing, other than doing my own work, producing my own films. I only do it as favors, for other people to get their films made.
I love working with a lot of different films and a lot of different people.
I love making cheap films. I really do. What I've found is that I work better when it's both a fairly low budget and a short schedule. It focuses the mind, and it's a better atmosphere.
