You can escape into a character.
As an actor, secrets and obstacles fuel the character.
It's hard to get lost in a scene, to get into a character when everyone's standing around you on the set.
I think I may have become an actor to hide from myself. You can escape into a character.
You must lose yourself if you want to be successful in animation and be the character.
Characters who experience great trauma will sometimes create an escape.
I love to play; a stage is a safe place for me to be. It's not that way for most folks, but I'd be lost without it.
I go through a whole process with the actors first, building and creating characters, then I encourage them to sort of live in that character when they're in the screen.
You can't take a character anywhere they don't expect the character to go. But within those confines is where creativity lies.
You always have to create the character from the ground up.
