“The nice thing about a series is you can end on cliffhangers all the time. You can be like, 'You know what? Here we go, this person just died, end of book.' And with the end of the series, you're very conscious of all the plotlines that were left hanging.

“When I first started working on movies as a production assistant, we were shooting 65, 75, 85 days.

It's like "Move on, move on, move on!" That's not the way to get the best performances or the most interesting shots. You have to constantly balance schedule and quality of work. For me, that's the biggest thing.” WayFeelsTryingFirstsKindMeanDoneMovingInterestingQualityLike YouBalanceShotsPerformancesImpactProductionsGrantedShootingThese DaysSchedulesMost InterestingAssistantsBest PerformanceGodzillaQuality WorkDeep Impact Author:Michael Sucsy

“We [me and my husband] both had our things. Seth was the artist, I was the singer. We were like "You do your thing, I'll do my thing and never the two shall meet." I think we had a healthy competition going through our childhood.
