I used a video camera, and shot on film cameras at school and stuff, but I had a lot more training as a writer. I kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I've done that my whole life.

When I make a movie, I have both a specific and vague, amorphous dream idea of what the movie is going to be. Of course, I don't actually know what it's going to be, but I'm still striving to get to some place with it.

I try to write 'and it's all very funny' after each scene description so that the reader can imagine the movie in their head.

It's kind of a crazy art form, movies, in that you have to get it right the day you do it, generally.
