feature figure great trying
I think what's so great about making your first feature film is that you're so naive in some ways; you don't know what to expect, and you don't question things as much because you're just trying to figure it out as you go.
act broke trying
As a first-time director, you act a lot like a teenager. I made decisions because I was hotheaded. My skin broke out. I was trying to understand who I am.
letting trying
The hardest thing on 'Palo Alto' was letting go because I kept working on it, trying to make it better.
To a certain extent, I like fashion, but sometimes I just want to be comfortable and don't really care.
mum preserved sad time weird
When I went to college, my mum was really sad, so she preserved my bedroom, like a weird time capsule.
classes ended taking year
I got my GED my senior year and ended up taking community college classes before I transferred to Bard.
mix people
Most people think of Las Vegas, and they think of extravagance. But it's really a mix between fantasy and laziness.
movies
Movies are a collaboration, I feel, so I didn't think of myself as an authoritative figure as much.
hard
I'm always really impressed when a movie can function like a novel does - that's so hard to do.
appreciation hard movies
I have so much appreciation for movies because I understand how hard it is to make one.
I have a lot of game apps I need to delete.
kids nice skin
So many of the kids on television have really nice clothes, perfect skin and hair.
goes grandpa love
My grandpa told me, 'Learn to love anxiety, because it never goes away in moviemaking.'
scenes stamina
My grandpa showed me how to build stamina onset behind the scenes on 'Twixt.'
