Hopefully with each thing that you do you're learning something, you're growing, and you're pushing yourself a little harder in some way or another.

With the few movies I've done, I've ended up playing with genre in some way or another, so any genre that's made to mix with others is like candy to me. It allows you to use big, mythic situations to talk about ordinary things.
