When I went to film school about three years ago, the first two years you're required to make a series of short films. I started making films based on short poems.

I made short films in school.

I love film, and I love short films.

I started making little short films with friends, and then I decided I wanted to get into the school play in high school.

I was in the school plays, I did a lot of music. I carried on through university for short films and loads of plays.

You graduate from film school and move to Hollywood. Hollywood tells you, 'We're not the place for you to make films,' so you decide you have to make a film yourself.
