It was my wish since I was a child to become something, to be able to stand on my own two feet, to do something for myself.
I wanted to prove that I could do something, so I made a short film. That was in fact my main concern, to be able to show that I could do one.
I grow my own vegetables and herbs. I like being able to tell people that the lunch I'm serving started out as a seed in my yard.
I want all my films to look distinctly different, like some other directors I admire. But in a way, I can't really take myself completely out of the movies I make.
My short stature may have something to do with my tendency to shout when enraged. How else is anyone going to hear me way down here?
For me, my training is a key part of my work as so often my life has depended on being able to move fast and haul myself up and out of something fast!
I took a film course in grade ten that made me want to direct, and I've always been making short films and home videos with my friends, so it's definitely something I wanna pursue as well.
I really love the idea of stepping into another character and being able to sing maybe stuff that is not my thought and my own opinions, but be able to portray someone else and take a walk in their shoes for a while.
Go out and make something that reflects your interests, your taste, and your ideas. No one will pay you to make something until you have a few things you can show that you've directed. I got my start by making short films on my own.
