A lot of young directors, they're not confident; they're not open to the emotional level of the scene.
How it works for me is that a scene comes to mind, usually a scene between the hero and heroine, that depicts the emotional conflict. From that scene, the characters come alive for me. I don't do a lot of preplanning in any way when I write.
I love working with women directors because of their emotional functionality and can undeniably connect with them on a fairly personal level.
For about seven years. I really like it there. There are a lot of great musicians. The scene is very open. A lot of stuff going on. People's ears are really open, they are not closed. A lot of scenes here, people just get tunnel vision and are into one thing.
I think directors should be confident in their leadership capabilities. I think directors should be confident in what they want to do.
The thing I noticed, have learned the most about directors, is: when they're very confident in themselves, they're open to creativity from other people. If they're scared or nervous, then they shut off and nobody's ideas [count].
Women have so many levels. There's the physical level, which is a lot of fun. There's this emotional level, which is extremely mercurial.
I have a lot of respect for people who are great at ad-libbing, and for writers and directors who are able to create a scene in which that works.
I worked with young directors all my life, only young directors.
Sometimes I think to get to the emotional level of a scene, you don't necessarily have to have experienced the exact thing that person has experienced, but whatever you have in your life that has gotten you to that place is usually enough.
I was really confident when I left WWE. I was confident that I would have a good time, and I was confident that I could wrestle differently than perhaps people saw me in the last few years with WWE, but I definitely wasn't prepared for this level of everything.
Whenever I read a script, I don't differentiate between a kissing scene or an emotional scene.
I'm an emotional actor. When I'm doing a scene, I really believe it. I live the part as long as I'm in the scene.
What I don't like is when I see stuff that I know has had a lot of improv done or is playing around where there's no purpose to the scene other than to just be funny. What you don't want is funny scene, funny scene, funny scene, and now here's the epiphany scene and then the movie's over.
Great directors can understand the staging in such a way that can make a scene come alive. Others have a certain way of pacing the scene.
In the earlier days, people used to be very emotional about making films. There used to be a great friendship between music directors and directors; today that is missing.
I roughly draw the scene beforehand to be more confident on the set. Instead of talking and explaining certain things, I try to visually communicate the scene to my team with the story board. This is how I work.
