A lot of things in film seem really complicated. Lists help a lot. Especially in prep when I have the time to go over a list and check things off.

Even on set, I try to keep a short checklist. I feel like that checklist changes a little on each project and as I get more experience. But it’s really important to remember that no rules are broken if I check my notes.
