My sole inspiration is a telephone call from a director.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
'Your Life Calling' is the first thing in my long career I've ever actually invented. It is my entrepreneurial debut.
Every week, I take two phone calls or meetings with an aspiring producer or director.
I don't even know if I can call myself a director.
There are lots of good directors I would like to work with; I want to be inspired and challenged by them.
In my own life, I've written scripts that I want to direct, so I would love to take my own creativity in a way where I could tell my own story. That does inspire me, the idea of becoming a director.
I'm interested in generating work for myself. I have trouble with this waiting-for-the-phone-to-ring lifestyle, especially after drama school, which was so creatively fulfilling.
I only get involved with projects as a producer if I feel creatively inspired.
Now I'm kind of established as a director, I much prefer directing to writing.
I was really ambitious, so I was innovative. I was one of the first DJs to do live calls, 'cause I found this phone device that would pick up other people's voices.
I'm the kind of director, at any given moment, an idea occurs to me, I'll just do it.
