As an artist, you're always trying to reach a new height, do something new, try something you haven't done before, and push your boundaries.

The beauty of every experience you have is that hopefully you'll learn something from it.

As an actor, most of the time, you only have so much say in how, what and where things go. As a director, you really get to paint a bigger picture. You have many more brushes to use.

I'm not a trained chef, so I end up making stuff up. It either turns out brilliant or an absolute disaster. I just go for it.
