The Mtv Video Awards Were Never About

I Always Wanted To Create This Community That Would Come And Tell Their Own Story, Shoot It - And Watch Them. The Idea Is To Not Have One Entity Who Creates The Work, The Project, And Another Entity Who Consumes It; The Idea Is People Create Their Own Work, Like Somebody Cultivating His Garden.

I Like Actors Who Just Are Who They Are, With A Little Bit Of Qualification To Adapt To Their Character. But Mostly They Just Use Their Own Personality To Embody The Character.

Michael Jackson Will Always Be My Favorite Pop Musician; He Was For Years And Years Until His Death, Which Was Horrible To Me. So I Like Pop Culture. But To Me, Even If It's Popular, There Is A Quality In The Music You Have To Be Able To Appreciate.

I Like To Use A Bit Of Chaos When I Shoot. I Think It May Be Something From The Way I Shot My First Film - I Was Very Scared, Of Course, And I Prepared Everything, I Wanted To Make Sure That The Characters Did The Right Thing At The Right Time On The Storyboard. But Then I Realised That In Life, There Is So Much More Than What You Can Predict Or Write In Advance, That When You Shoot The Story, It's Good To Leave Some Gaps Where You Lose Control. I Think This Combination Of Chaos And Organisation Gives A Kind Of Quality.

It's Very Hard To Say I'm Surrealist. It's Like Saying I'm Poetic. It's Not Something You Want Necessarily To Be Aware Of.
