I've never been a fan of directors who clutter a piece with all sorts of crazy preconceptions or weird ideas.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If you look at the types of directors out there, I'm not as weird as most of them.
There are times when directors just don't know what they're doing.
Everything I've ever written, I had a very distinct vision of what I wanted it to look like. But, other directors never do it that way.
I've worked with a lot of directors who really don't have a sense of what the hell they want.
I'm lucky enough that directors sometimes seek me out for little projects that people don't even know about, that just surface later on.
There are times when you work with directors on set, and things are a bit rudderless, and those can be good directors.
I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film, we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.
The most nurturing of directors can make you feel too comfortable, and you don't really push for that extra whatever.
A lot of directors prefer the solitude of the editing process, but I revel in the craziness of what a film set is.
I like directors who come on the set and create something that's a little dangerous, difficult or unusual.
