As I'm Writing, I Start To See Connections, And Themes I Didn't See, And That Sparks Other Things. So Then I Go Back And Rewrite Things Or Alter Them. It's A Combination Of Intuition And A Lot Of Finessing. It Becomes A Combination Of The Rational And The Irrational.

Story Ideas, But It's Also Musing On Stuff That I'm Thinking About. This Leads Me To This And This Leads Me To This. They're Kind Of Random And Haphazard. Often I Can't Find Anything. Somehow, By Doing That, Even Though I Don't Necessarily Refer To Them In A Specific Way, I Have Some Sort Of Architecture In My Head.

You Spend Most Of Your Time As A Director Trying To Move Forward With The Movie. It Happens On A Daily Basis, If Not More Than Once A Day, That You Are Struggling With Budgetary Constraints. Whereas When You're Writing, The Limitation That You Have Is Your Imagination. So It's Decidedly Non-pragmatic.

I Love Working With Actors. I Love Visual Things. I Always Intended To Be A Writer Who Directs And A Director Who Writes.
