I've worked on really big budget movies as a designer - 'Vanilla Sky,' 'Three Kings;' I've been in that world, and you can just see people get nervous.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've been lucky enough to work with some great directors, and I don't want to throw that away by doing one big horrible big budget film.
That's one of the benefits of working on big budget films. You work with people who have a lot of experience and you get to learn a lot.
If you're a designer, there's got to be some films that you've seen that have inspired you creatively. There's no escaping that.
I have been a little lucky to get work. I know there are people who struggle a lot to get a film; I believe a lot in destiny. Things have fallen into place for me.
I worked on three independent movies in close succession and... I really learned from those directors how to stay on budget, make your days, get it done, keep everyone happy, which is a huge thing in a movie, and to steer the ship.
I just like to do work that inspires me, and I don't pay any attention to whether it's a high- or low-budget movie.
I enjoy working in movies that appeal to and will be seen by many people.
I never really planned a career. I've tried to avoid it. I've tried to do this stuff I felt for, the stuff I like. So, I've just been meeting these fantastic directors who've offered me a variation of different parts and different films.
Talking to other people who make low-budget movies, everyone kind of has the same struggle.
On the last couple of movies I made - big-budget Hollywood movies - I really missed being able to create my own material.
