“When I get hired as an actor as opposed to a writer, one of things that's exciting for me is doing stuff I wouldn't normally do myself. So whether it's a kid's movie or a voice in animation or in this case - where I just get to be silly, it's a different kind of comedy for me. As a performer, it's a different pleasure than when you're writing or directing. As a performer, you're just in the hands of the director and you go with whatever they want to do.” WantWritingKindDifferentHandsKidsActorsStuffVoicePleasureCasesComedyDirectorsExcitingSillyPerformersDifferent KindsAnimationBeing Silly Author:Stephen Merchant
“In college, unable to be "special" - or in demand - as a girl, I made myself useful, even essential, in my microcosm - as a writer and photographer for the band, particularly for the band director. My "specialness" was to produce something of value, not to look like something (with that different kind of "value"), so I was still fundamentally invisible, but had a significant purpose.” LooksKindMadeStillsDifferentPurposeValuesGirlSpecialProduceCollegeBandDirectorsDemandEssentialsPhotographerSignificantInvisibleDifferent KindsLike SomethingMicrocosmSpecialness Author:Cris Mazza

“But, working with directors whose history is in performance, I feel like there's a different kind of focus, as opposed to directors who are more prone to being really technically proficient or visual. I feel like there are two schools of both, and a director needs to have both.” NeedsFeelsKindTwoDifferentSchoolFocusDirectorsPerformancesVisualsBeing RealDifferent Kinds Author:Bryce Dallas Howard
“Alejandro Amenabar is a different kind of director than I lot of the directors I've asked for. He really asks you to enter his dream as opposed to, you know, a guy like Sidney Lumet or something is going to ask you to create a character almost like a documentary. He wants you to make the people really real and he's going to capture it like a documentarian.” PeopleKnowsWantKindDifferentRealCharacterDreamGuyAsksDirectorsCaptureDifferent KindsDocumentaries Author:Ethan Hawke
