I think the story only really comes alive on the set.
The script is the foundation, but it's not the full story for the film, which only comes alive with the actors.
When you go to a film festival as an audience member, it's so much fun. But when you bring your own film there, you carry so much stress and excitement.
I like developing characters who I find to have interesting psychology. Like politics and sex, but I'm really looking at bigger social problems that interest me, and that I can obsess over for a while.
