I know that some actors and directors like to have intensity on set. I don't, particularly. Certainly, if they want that, that's fine, but I can't work like that.

I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.

Being on set is like being in college, for me, because I get to watch other people perform and I can learn from them if I listen and pay attention.

I've been on sets my whole life.

I have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me; I always feel that they have not said enough.

I've been on plenty of sets where I have not liked the people that I work with, but you suck it up and be professional.

It's so nerve-wracking to be on a set. They're the most stressful place in the world, because you're making something permanent, and there are so many people relying on you in a lot of ways.

When I'm on set, I do whatever I can to find my focus.

I think actually what keeps the intensity manageable - it's a little counterintuitive - is that it's changing all the time. Every week is different for me.
