Once you become a producer, you're really selling something. It is a control issue, because you don't really know how it's going to pan out, but the creative control makes it work it.

When you're a producer and an artist you're very critical of yourself. I like to produce other people, but I'm not that good at producing myself.

As a producer, you're pretty much creating a body of work that an artist has to stand behind.

Being a producer, I deal with a lot of different directors, and some of them would drive me insane with all the different histrionics, and the mystique that they carry.

So I became a producer because I knew one of the reasons was they didn't do them the way I thought was right.

I'm a producer... I am a Hollywood producer. That is so weird. And it's not lame. But it's just like, how did that happen?

My definition of a producer is 'the man with the dream.'

As a producer you have creative control, and that's what is so exciting about it. At the end of the day, if you have made a film it's totally your responsibility, and if it works it's your responsibility and if it doesn't it's also your responsibility.
