At Netflix, we think you have to build a sense of responsibility where people care about the enterprise. Hard work, like long hours at the office, doesn't matter as much to us. We care about great work.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We in the independent sector more than anybody need Netflix, because they care about what we do.

TV is starting to become such a collective experience again. People are watching it on their own time, rather than being on a schedule. Netflix offers the easy opportunity to watch as much as you can.
Working on a film is so great because you have the luxury of more time when you're on a movie than when you're on television.
It's my responsibility to make the movie work with the schedule and money we have. It's my job to get the best movie we can do in the time we have.
It seems to be that more and more people are asking you to work for nothing on films, and that's unfortunate because you have to make a living. On the other hand, I don't do a better job because I get paid a lot of money. I'm never like, 'I'm not going to work as hard because I'm not getting paid as much.'
With me, I probably work a lot more than people assume I do, but people don't realize how much work goes into writing and producing and making a movie.
Work is good when people are responsible, and in low-budget movies a lot of the actors don't want to be there. They're there to build a resume.
The longer people watch Netflix and the longer they stay members - they're the criteria of success for us.
I started my career with television, and whatever work I did was keeping the content as my topmost priority. Same goes with the movies: I never grabbed any work!
