I didn't have a normal academic career. I never studied cinema. I learned from life.

I'd been an actor in high school, and when I got to college, it was all about film.

I didn't go to film school. I got my education on the set as a niche publicist in the film industry.

I never studied film formally at school, but as a kid, I spent most of my time in cinemas.

Then in college I became obsessed with film, and wanted to be part of that.

As a kid, I was just writing scripts and taking whatever film classes I could in college.

I always liked film as a teaching tool - a way of getting exposed to ideas that had never been presented to me. It just wasn't on the list of career options where I grew up.

I grew up on film scores and scores from films.
