WEBVTT 00:16.900 --> 00:17.900 Probably 00:17.900 --> 00:20.200 most creative thing for me at the moment is 00:20.200 --> 00:23.000 directing. 00:23.000 --> 00:26.500 I've been acting a long time and 00:26.500 --> 00:29.800 we have to do something really 00:29.800 --> 00:32.400 different challenging 00:32.400 --> 00:34.600 thing that you really turn me on commuting 00:34.600 --> 00:38.700 to take me with him directly. 00:38.700 --> 00:41.200 I've always written will continue to vibrate today post 00:41.200 --> 00:42.600 something 00:42.600 --> 00:43.800 and 00:43.800 --> 00:44.800 it's unusual 00:44.800 --> 00:46.300 given to write things like I did. 00:46.300 --> 00:48.400 The trilogy of books and Adria 00:48.400 --> 00:50.200 books. 00:50.200 --> 00:51.900 It's illegal for me to write things that people 00:51.900 --> 00:53.300 actually read 00:53.300 --> 00:55.000 so I will always continue to write it's always 00:55.000 --> 00:55.800 a part of 00:55.800 --> 01:00.400 a part of me. 01:00.400 --> 01:01.600 Well, I've always 01:01.600 --> 01:03.500 wanted to direct and I approached the really early 01:03.500 --> 01:04.000 on 01:04.000 --> 01:05.100 that 01:05.100 --> 01:06.200 one to 01:06.200 --> 01:08.100 learn how and 01:08.100 --> 01:09.600 he graciously 01:09.600 --> 01:12.100 producers graciously opened their doors 01:12.100 --> 01:13.200 to learn 01:13.200 --> 01:15.000 I had directed in the field before but didn't 01:15.000 --> 01:16.500 know if I had the eye 01:16.500 --> 01:19.700 to give it to post things from 01:19.700 --> 01:22.300 and I discovered that I absolutely loved it, but 01:22.300 --> 01:24.300 I didn't love was acting and directing 01:24.300 --> 01:26.300 in the same shell that was very hard for 01:26.300 --> 01:26.900 me 01:26.900 --> 01:28.200 to different parts of my brain. 01:28.200 --> 01:29.700 Completely. 01:29.700 --> 01:30.700 I love doing 01:30.700 --> 01:37.400 both acting directing, but I think separately. 01:37.400 --> 01:38.600 Well right now 01:38.600 --> 01:39.600 I'm loving 01:39.600 --> 01:41.300 directing for film 01:41.300 --> 01:43.200 and you reckon computer is a whole different kind 01:43.200 --> 01:43.700 of thing. 01:43.700 --> 01:46.300 It's a wonderful high and itself 01:46.300 --> 01:47.900 you looking with 01:47.900 --> 01:49.700 Christina in one sort of 01:49.700 --> 01:52.400 frame and then putting fill it and 01:52.400 --> 01:53.500 create different things. 01:53.500 --> 01:54.200 But 01:54.200 --> 01:55.400 is it 01:55.400 --> 01:57.100 wonderful Freedom 01:57.100 --> 01:59.000 directly 01:59.000 --> 02:00.500 and it's 02:00.500 --> 02:03.100 I find it so exciting woman anymore about it 02:03.100 --> 02:05.600 and becoming better at what I do. 02:05.600 --> 02:07.200 Hopefully I am 02:07.200 --> 02:08.700 And I'm hoping that this will be a part 02:08.700 --> 02:14.100 of my life. 02:14.100 --> 02:17.100 You know, actually I was very influenced by 02:17.100 --> 02:18.700 via a film class. 02:18.700 --> 02:20.200 I took in college 02:20.200 --> 02:20.900 that 02:20.900 --> 02:23.400 was mostly centered around editing 02:23.400 --> 02:26.000 and I was 02:26.000 --> 02:28.700 very turned on by that but decided never to 02:28.700 --> 02:29.900 pursue it because 02:29.900 --> 02:30.900 I was going to be an accurate to what 02:30.900 --> 02:33.700 I had decided on I'm very sort of single-minded 02:33.700 --> 02:35.300 and it wasn't until 02:35.300 --> 02:38.000 many years later, but 02:38.000 --> 02:39.700 it came full circle and I came back to 02:39.700 --> 02:40.000 that. 02:40.000 --> 02:40.300 I 02:40.300 --> 02:42.800 actually dug out that old text with him 02:42.800 --> 02:44.000 again. 02:44.000 --> 02:44.400 Like that. 02:44.400 --> 02:45.800 I've been inspired to this 02:45.800 --> 02:51.400 long long time ago. 02:51.400 --> 02:54.500 Well directing for Enterprise is 02:54.500 --> 02:56.400 is great because I'm so bad with my family. 02:56.400 --> 02:58.100 I mean, these are the same people for the 02:58.100 --> 03:00.500 most part that I was working with on Voyager. 03:00.500 --> 03:01.200 That's wonderful. 03:01.200 --> 03:03.700 The show is quite different when it's different tasks 03:03.700 --> 03:07.200 until a different premise. 03:07.200 --> 03:09.000 This show has a slightly different look 03:09.000 --> 03:11.200 but I love that because I think we're able 03:11.200 --> 03:12.500 to try to 03:12.500 --> 03:13.500 or trying 03:13.500 --> 03:15.700 to push the envelope a little bit more 03:15.700 --> 03:17.700 and 03:17.700 --> 03:19.500 it allows me to be a bit more creative 03:19.500 --> 03:21.200 than I could. 03:21.200 --> 03:23.200 I could have an invoice edger 03:23.200 --> 03:25.200 and I love what they're trying to do with 03:25.200 --> 03:26.200 wonderful to is 03:26.200 --> 03:27.700 is 03:27.700 --> 03:30.000 is directing one of the First episodes of Enterprise 03:30.000 --> 03:32.400 the right there as they begin to establish things 03:32.400 --> 03:33.400 in my episode. 03:33.400 --> 03:36.000 It is the first time that anybody had been 03:36.000 --> 03:37.200 transported 03:37.200 --> 03:39.100 and to be able to deal with what that 03:39.100 --> 03:39.200 is. 03:39.200 --> 03:41.000 Like for the first time in my last episode 03:41.000 --> 03:42.800 is the first time that they saw 03:42.800 --> 03:44.600 food replicator 03:44.600 --> 03:47.000 and to sort of play with those ideas and 03:47.000 --> 03:49.600 have wonderful to be there 03:49.600 --> 03:52.100 at the Inception sorted. 03:52.100 --> 03:54.300 Determining how things are going through 03:54.300 --> 03:58.900 its great. 03:58.900 --> 03:59.900 Well, the 03:59.900 --> 04:02.300 the process that a director has to go through 04:02.300 --> 04:04.100 at least on television, 04:04.100 --> 04:06.300 which is very different than feature films 04:06.300 --> 04:06.900 with the television. 04:06.900 --> 04:09.200 It's so fast and coming up the product just 04:09.200 --> 04:11.400 immediately 04:11.400 --> 04:13.400 varies greatly from show to show and even from 04:13.400 --> 04:14.700 episode to episode 04:14.700 --> 04:17.400 depending upon the requirements of that particular episode 04:17.400 --> 04:18.100 often times. 04:18.100 --> 04:20.500 You don't get a script to the last minute 04:20.500 --> 04:21.900 and it would be really nice to get it 04:21.900 --> 04:22.900 earlier. 04:22.900 --> 04:24.300 You're often struggling 04:24.300 --> 04:25.900 with having to deal with a lot of 04:25.900 --> 04:26.800 anything 04:26.800 --> 04:27.300 and 04:27.300 --> 04:29.400 every script is different their tongues were there's a 04:29.400 --> 04:30.900 show this way optically heavier. 04:30.900 --> 04:32.600 There are a lot of effects 04:32.600 --> 04:33.900 and have to iron all those things out and 04:33.900 --> 04:34.300 figure out. 04:34.300 --> 04:36.000 Well, how do you do that? 04:36.000 --> 04:37.500 How do you like in one of the episodes 04:37.500 --> 04:39.100 of Enterprise that I did have you 04:39.100 --> 04:41.200 create this character this written on a page that 04:41.200 --> 04:43.100 is this 04:43.100 --> 04:45.400 this sort of 04:45.400 --> 04:47.600 this kind of cell like a new bug character 04:47.600 --> 04:49.000 that takes over 04:49.000 --> 04:50.100 the entire cargo bay. 04:50.100 --> 04:51.600 You read that on the page and go. 04:51.600 --> 04:51.800 Okay. 04:51.800 --> 04:53.200 Now, how do I do that? You talk to 04:53.200 --> 04:54.400 the people you created. 04:54.400 --> 04:56.000 It's your job to make it. 04:56.000 --> 04:57.900 The title of on the screen 04:57.900 --> 04:59.800 and that involves a week of what they called 04:59.800 --> 05:01.300 prep, which has 05:01.300 --> 05:04.100 a lot of meetings and preparing to direct 05:04.100 --> 05:06.700 that you hopefully get all of your problems ironed 05:06.700 --> 05:07.500 out 05:07.500 --> 05:09.900 and then the clock starts when you start collecting 05:09.900 --> 05:12.200 and you have to achieve what you've prepared to 05:12.200 --> 05:13.500 achieve 05:13.500 --> 05:14.800 and 05:14.800 --> 05:17.600 hopefully you do achieve that in the time allotted 05:17.600 --> 05:19.700 and get it all 05:19.700 --> 05:21.000 into the camera 05:21.000 --> 05:22.300 and then you've got your post. 05:22.300 --> 05:23.000 Will you 05:23.000 --> 05:24.300 begin to edit 05:24.300 --> 05:25.900 all together and discover all the police? 05:25.900 --> 05:27.300 These that are missing 05:27.300 --> 05:29.100 you'll never get and how to work a little 05:29.100 --> 05:31.500 bit on that 05:31.500 --> 05:34.600 and they put in the effects and music when 05:34.600 --> 05:40.500 it ends up on. 05:40.500 --> 05:41.900 I couldn't be more grateful. 05:41.900 --> 05:45.100 I thought of most amazing family and 05:45.100 --> 05:46.700 I'm able to do the things that I love 05:46.700 --> 05:49.500 doing 05:49.500 --> 05:50.500 Star Trek 05:50.500 --> 05:52.800 has afforded me some amazing 05:52.800 --> 05:55.300 amazing opportunities 05:55.300 --> 05:56.900 and 05:56.900 --> 05:58.200 I will always be 05:58.200 --> 05:58.500 grateful.
