I Just Wanted It To Be American.

What I Remember Myself From Films, And What I Love About Films, Is Specific Scenes And Characters.

I Like Working With Family And Friends And People I Admire. All My Movies Are Filled With Family Members Of Some Capacity. I Think It Means More When You Have A Personal Relationship With Someone.

A Lot Of Times You Can Write A Scene With A Specific Song In Mind, And Then You Lay It Over The Image, And It Kills It. I Can Never Figure Out Why Certain Music Works. Some Music You Listen To And Say, "man, That Would Be Great For A Movie." But When You Try It, It's Horrible, Because The Music Itself Is Cinematic. The Weight Of It Kills The Image.

I Tried Working Odd Jobs That Had Nothing To Do With Creating, And It Was Difficult For Me. In The End, I Just Always Loved Movies. When I'm Making A Film I Feel Most Alive, Like I'm Doing The Right Thing, And I'm In The Place Where I Need To Be.

Rap Is The Only Interesting Music Left - It's The Only Genre That's Still Pushing Itself, And Experimenting In A Way That I Find Exciting.
