On a film set, we're all glorified troubleshooters, really, as directors. It's not if a problem arises. It's when.
I immensely enjoy any experience directing. I've never hated it, and I've had bad experiences. At the end of the day, I just feel like I'm supposed to be on a set. I'm supposed to be working with creative people. I'm supposed to be working with actors and I'm supposed to be manning a project in this capacity. It's interesting.
Some people are swimmers and they're born to swim. They're like fish in the water. I will definitely say it's someplace that I feel at home.
Honestly, on so many levels, I feel like motherhood has prepared me even better for directing than film school because all it is is troubleshooting and dealing with different personalities and emotions and trying to make everybody happy and at the end of the day reaching your own personal goals and agendas.
Typically, I like to talk and meet with actors face to face well before we start shooting.
