I was a film major with a concentration in animation.

I went to drama school for four years at Carnegie Mellon, conservatory training before television comedy. I was doing Shakespeare and Chekov plays. It's about delivering on the promise of a $100,000 education and taking the shackles off and trying the hand at my craft. I'm thrilled with what I've seen so far.

I took myself out of the business to study film at NYU and the School of Visual Arts. I grew up on movie sets and was fascinated with the camera and behind-the-scenes work. I felt it would help my career as an actor if I knew all aspects of film.

I feel like a lot of my past career was going to film school, making a lot of different kinds of movies. I made a bunch of comedies, I made one drama and I made a couple musicals.

I left school with no qualifications, but I was doing theatre and film work and thought that was the best thing since sliced bread.

I almost became a music major, but somehow I was so enthralled with the camera and becoming a director that I stuck with film school and theatrics.

Film schools didn't exist when I was growing up. I learned by working with clever people. Good writers and cinematographers.

I was a really good student. I was nerdy and ambitious. I was involved with every large theater production at my school.

I did my first film when I was in the final year of my graduation. At that time, I was still a kid, and I couldn't read the industry very well.
