My way of getting the best from people on a set is to notice their work, to make every prop master, every seamstress, part of 'The Newsroom' or 'The West Wing' or 'Steve Jobs.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you're put on a set with a lot of people, it's just nice to see everyone working together.
I'm always friendly and encouraging on set. I want people to be at their best creatively.
I love being on sets with very seasoned directors as well as very new directors. Every time is a discovery process. You learn something new every time.
I would take up any small job on the sets, just so that I could hang around with the hope of getting noticed.
As my own boss, I have the opportunity to get to work with great brands like Old Navy, and I get to style some looks together that people can actually buy and afford.
We hire people who want to make the best things in the world.
I find myself really privileged to be able to go in and look at a set that the likes of Hollywood can provide, and say, 'My God, look at the craftsmanship in this; look at the ambition in it, the scale of it.'
As an actor on sets, I've always clocked how hard the crew works, how much longer their days are, how much lesser their glory is - and the fact that their commitment to the work and project is unwavering, no matter the budget.
Professional people make everything look perfect, they make everything that you're wearing look great, if it's in a picture or on the runway.
It's through working with a lot of first-time directors that I realized that people learn on their feet. Everybody works on something for a different reason. Everybody has got something new to learn on these sets, and you don't have to know everything, the second you start.
