'Olive Kitteridge' is the only thing that I've done on camera where we had a day of rehearsal before we shot, and I'm so glad that that happened, because I was so nervous.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've worked with actors who treat the first two takes like rehearsals. And that's okay. If the camera is on you and we're doing a scene where I'm off camera, I'm treating that as a rehearsal.
I was definitely nervous turning up on my first day to shoot with Woody Allen.
I always get nervous before a scene.
I can't remember that I ever had just a minute of stage fright.
It was a scene I was really looking forward to, and one that I embraced, and when we were filming it, George got closer and closer and closer with that camera - he was practically up my nose for the final shot. So I knew it was a moment that I had to do my best to get right.
I was really nervous working with actors, since I come from a photography background.
I suffer from stage fright, so I blabber on stage and stop midway through my performances. I cannot even write a cheque, as it makes me nervous. Being around people makes me nervous. But I'm very comfortable in front of the camera, and this I realised many films later.
I think I was afraid of what I might say when I got onto someone's stage or in front of someone's camera.
We just started filming, and after every scene was shot, we had a rehearsal for the next one.
I love to be nervous before a scene.
