I almost became a music major, but somehow I was so enthralled with the camera and becoming a director that I stuck with film school and theatrics.

I started out with this dream of being a director and doing cinematography and bought my first film camera at 15.

I think you can have a whole terrific, smart career as a second and third banana and work more and have much less risk than the lead guy. But I like being the lead guy.
