When You're Working On A Creative Thing, Everyone Has An Idea, And They're Pushing It. The First Time You Work With Anybody, You Have To Get Comfortable With The Way Another Person Pushes Hard For What They Want. Familiarity Breeds Contempt, People Say. But I've Found, For Creative Things, Familiarity Breeds Peace Of Mind, Because You Realize You Know Someone Better. You Trust Each Other. You Know Not To Take Things A Certain Way, Or A Wrong Way. You Get To Where You Don't Have To Waste Quite So Much Time With Diplomacy. Things Are A Little More Efficient.

A Lot Of People Ask, "what Do You Pull On In Your Own Life From Your Character?" In All Honesty, It's Not Something That Really Works That Way For Me. I Tend To Look At These Things As An Imaginative Process And A Challenge Of Imagination And Empathy, To Some Degree. I Get Much More Out Of Meeting People Who Have Lived These Lives Than I Do Digging Around In My Own Limited Experiences.

Well, I Don't Feel That I've Played So Many Bad Guys, And I'm Rot Really Drawn To Villains Per Se. I Think A Lot Of People Relate To Some Of My Characters' Inner Struggles.

In A Very Philosophic Sense I Think Doing The Work Is Itself A Good Thing. But At The End Of The Day, Since We're Taking Other People's Shekels To Do It, And Their Work Is Being Able To Make A Return Out Of It, It Forces You To Consider The Fact That You're Doing It For Other People. The Whole Construct Is Built Around The Assumption That It's Going To Get Shared, And That Someone Else Is Going To Find Value In It - Entertainment, Catharsis, Enlightenment, Or Whatever.

The End Of The Day
I'm An Actor, And, Beyond That, The Thing I Do Most Compulsively Is Writing. So I Come At It Very Much From This Sense Of Character. I Get Interested In People. And I Feel Confident In My Capacity To Absorb And Manifest The Characteristics Of People. I Have A Real Auditory Hang-up For Dialogue; Re-creating The Way People Talk Really Is An Addiction In My Brain.
