- It is a privilege to be on set as an actor. At that moment, either principal or background, you are helping to fulfill a vision, a product. Be grateful for such an opportunity.
- Being on set is not unlike the military. Always, always, always volunteer. Of course you're tired after a long day. We're all tired. Volunteer yourself and fulfill the director's vision.
- Whether it is background or principal, research your part off set. Make that performance the best for your director when on set.
- Through kind words or deeds; we make each other's day on set a bit better. For we better ourselves with these selfless acts. With a degree of certitude do not know when we will cross paths with each other again.
- I highly admire my director, Cameron Crowe, from the set of "We Bought A Zoo". In just 30 seconds upon meeting him for the first time, he upgraded me to principal. He took a chance! For two hours, I was immersed in pure improv as an insane US Air Force hurricane hunter pilot. Thank you, sir, for such a wonderful opportunity.

- I highly admire my director, Cameron Crowe, from the film "We Bought A Zoo". Upon meeting him for the first time, he took a chance on me. Within 30 seconds of speaking to him I was upgraded to principal. For the next two hours it was a joy to immerse myself in pure improvisation as an insane US Air Force hurricane hunter pilot interacting with Matt Damon's character. I truly appreciated such a rare opportunity to perform.
- Through kind words or deeds, we make each other's day a bit more pleasant on set. For we better our own selves with such behavior and selfless acts. Indeed, we cannot possibly know with any degree of certitude when we might ever cross paths with each another again.
- Whether it is a background or principal part, research it off set. Bring realism to it. Know it inside and out. Walk, talk, move with self-assuredness. Interact with your fellow actors. Make each and every scene excellent.
- While on set, strive to make your fellow actor look good...when you do that, you will look and perform at your natural best.
- On set, I would rather be accused of being kind, decent and respectful than beg for a second chance to make a good first impression.
- Think you would like acting? Always wanted to try it? Afraid? Let the doubts go...make it happen for yourself...when several years pass and you did NOT try...well that is several years lost...Challenge yourself...go, now...before "is" becomes "was"!
- Being on set is not unlike being in the military. Always, always, always volunteer. Of course, you're tired after a long day. We're all tired. Push your envelope, volunteer, and help to fulfill the director's goals.
