“When I was younger, I wanted to own a circus and create this bizarre revue that went from town to town. And, I was interested in set design and doing theater. And then, I was painting for a while. It was all circling around creating an intense experience for an audience of one, or an audience of many.” WantedAudienceDesignPaintingCreatingTheaterTownsIntenseBizarreCircusAudience Of One Author:Neil Burger

“The most surprising thing to me is what an incredibly intense effort it's been to create a world from the ground up. I had run a show that had already existed and had been created by the show-runner, Meredith [Stiehm]. It's a very different experience to come in at ground zero and meet people and assemble the cast and crew. As a group and as a family, we're creating this world.” PeopleWorldDifferentShowsRunningEffortGroupsThis WorldCreatingCastsIntenseZeroSurprisingCrewRunnersDifferent ExperiencesGround ZeroSurprising Things Author:Veena Sud
“The other thing is that it's really hard to separate out the harassment from everything we do. When we started creating Tropes, we were hyper-aware of the intense scrutiny, the intense harassment, and the intense pressure to do something meaningful given the attention both positive and negative. That's carried over in terms of making sure that I produce the best work that I can, that's the most accurate, the most sensitive and engaged.” I CanHardGivenTermAttentionProduceCreatingNegativePressureMeaningfulIntenseSensitiveEngagedAccurateBest WorkScrutinyHarassmentHyperTropes Author:Anita Sarkeesian
