- If the reason why you're
doing anything creative

To-infinitive

is to make a living, than
you're doing it wrong.

I don't really like the word inspiration.

It's not how you tell
it, it's what you tell.

Life shrinks and expands
in direct proportion

There will always be
someone who's better at

I always do my best to
operate without fear.

And the irony here is that
this video was like huge.

This is when viral meant like
chlamydia in a frat house.

to really pursue the
things you care about.

- He's an American film
director, producer, designer

- I always made a living
so I could make movies.

I never made movies to
try and make a living

that a lot of newcomers
do is that they focus

And I think that's a
terrible place to start.

If the reason why you're
doing anything creative

is to make a living, then
you're doing it wrong.

You get into it because
it's a true passion.

What inspires me, you
know I don't really like

I like the motivation cause
I think the working part

always matters more than
the inspiration part.

Work is always more
important than the idea.

You know I'm motivated
by everything around me.

I'm motivated by the
people that I work with.

I'm like a sponge, I absorb
the motivation to do my work

and I think this is true
to writing to filmmaking

Any sort of field in
the creative capacity,

is that it's not how you
tell it, it's what you tell.

So it never has anything
to do with what camera

with camera tricks or high
production or low production.

- Then if you're someone who obsesses over

- When I look back at my career,
I see all of these tangents

and the tangents that have
always yielded success

were the ones where there
was no established path.

And those new things, those new entities,

have always proven to be
the most rewarding for me.

the act of exploration is
the act of assuming risk.

The greater risk takers
the greater explorer.

I never sort of apprenticed
under a filmmaker.
