“Usually when you meet with a director, just meeting them after you've seen something you're interested in, they say, "Oh I'd love to work together," and sometimes you never hear from them again.” SometimesTogetherDirectorsMeetingsWorking Together Author:Willem Dafoe
“I generally enjoy the rehearsal process because that's where you can share your ideas, get your thoughts and feelings out and see whether or not they're going to land, whether or not people are going to agree with them, particularly the director. So you can sort out in that process any elements that need to be sorted out before you're on the set, and of course that saves time and it also makes everyone more comfortable working together.” PeopleNeedsIdeasFeelingsTogetherCoursesProcessEnjoyShareLandDirectorsElementsComfortableAgreeWorking TogetherRehearsalThoughts And Feelings Author:Nicolas Cage
“There's always room. That's what the directors usually want. They want the performer to bring themselves and give what they have to give for the role. The smart ones allow that to happen because then it becomes even more organic within the performer's imagination. It becomes even more real. It's not always a given in other films, but when Gunn works, and we all work together in a collaborative way like that, it becomes a given that you bring it. It becomes a lot of fun.” WayWantGivingRealHappensTogetherFilmGivenFunImaginationRoomsRolesDirectorsSmartWorking TogetherPerformers Author:Michael Rooker
