Memorable Quotes
“This is such an important structure for supporting people who don’t necessarily have the resources to advocate for themselves.” [7:13]
“We often think about Hollywood as just film and television, but there’s so many more things shooting everywhere, all the time.” [8:13]
“It’s still hard work and a grind, but can it be hard work and a grind where you can afford your fucking rent!” [11:05]
“It is a wild time that a camera this good is going to be walking around in everybody’s pocket all the time.” [22:08]
“I’m shifting away from people pleasing mode. Shifting away from party host mode, to focusing on the end product. Focusing on the story we are telling, and letting that be the only ego.” [27:20]
