We brainstorm an idea and then we do flesh it out a little bit - we come up with a script, mostly to have beats and a sense of a story and a narrative arc. Often when we get into the space and onto the location, that changes and something we discover in the moment becomes the moment, becomes the story, becomes the character.
Carrie Brownstein
I like to connect with people through my work. That's my favorite way - meetings of the minds, fans at a show. Those are nice mediated ways of hanging out.
Carrie Brownstein
Just invest in apps. Just download apps and then pay yourself the dividend.
Carrie Brownstein
I think proteins are really good for your brain. And your brain is where comedy comes from.
Carrie Brownstein
People are wearing fleece, which is a hard fabric to be angry in.
Carrie Brownstein
I'm always trying to encourage people not to limit themselves in the same way that many of our parents stayed with one job forever.
Carrie Brownstein
Rihanna has guts and she always seems to be singing from someplace honest, dark and fierce.
Carrie Brownstein
Music has always been my constant, my salvation. It's cliche to write that, but it's true.
