I was at Elon University in North Carolina for two years pursuing my BFA. And after my sophomore year, I was cast in the Broadway Tour of 'West Side Story.' I just kind of - it always was my favorite show growing up.
People have been fed this diet of pabulum, rights, and impulsive freedom. There's just an absolute starvation for the other side of the story.
So 'Nier Automata' feels like a story about androids but no, the main theme of 'Automata' is human.
'The Hobbit' didn't include female characters at all and was a very linear story, a book for children, really.
No one in 'Banshee' has small opinions. They have strong beliefs, and they will defend them ferociously. Having that element in the show just adds another level. It's another avenue for story, and it enriches the world.

The first story I finished was when I was six years old.
A talib fires three shots at point-blank range at three girls in a van and doesn't kill any of them. This seems an unlikely story.
In first grade, I told my friends I had a third story in my house filled with jewels and lions.
Originally the film opened with Ryan in the doctor's office, being told his wife is dying. Then we see him walking the streets, and the story is told in flashback.
My favorite things often have a story behind them and are usually handmade or discovered at a flea market.
Fleetwood Mac has been pretty truthful. Open about what we do. We've always done it from the inside out. Versus being pressured from the outside and changing the inside. And that's our story.
If I could remake any Eighties project, it would be less an action flick than a character-driven drama with a rich story to tell.
You do get certain publications in the States where, if things don't go according to plan, they flip the story and it becomes very negative.
The media is looking every season for a designer to tell a story. I have a long story I have to tell, continuing fluently year after year.
