I love working with actors. That's what the set really is, for me. It's my time with the actors.

I love being on set, because I've basically grown up on a set. And now I love to contribute as a director and help steer the ship, if you will.

The rehearsal time is almost my favourite part of being an actress, particularly if you're working on a play that hasn't been done before.

Being on set is a hard thing. A lot of people are like, 'Oh, you get to make a movie, and it's all fun.' But the reality is, it's a lot of hours. It's a lot of reshoots; it's a lot of waiting. And you can become increasingly agitated by the amount of time that you are waiting. But that's real.

I come to work on time. I focus on my job. I bust my scenes out and everything else kind of happens from there.

The great thing about stage is that you have more control. The stage is yours. The time is yours. Film is really the editor's medium.

When I'm on the set, I'll come up with ideas if I'm sort of just between responsibilities, because there's a lot of sitting around on set. Invariably, though, the stuff I come up with on the set tends to be bad.

There's nothing that compares with the time spent all by myself on a creation that is all my own. I still think of my solo work as my 'home planet' in comics, though I've learned to listen much more to editors and trusted friends for feedback.

I like to spend as much time on the stage as possible. I don't do a regular TV series because I don't want to be overexposed.

When I'm not on set, I'm in the studio.
