00:00You know you've been on sets since you were a kid. I was wondering if there was a specific
00:05thing that you feel like you've gathered that you really wanted to bring to this specific set
00:10in terms of also like in terms of like bringing the suspense and tension that the actors have to
00:14feel. Absolutely. I mean I think uh learned so many things I think through through my opportunity
00:22to sort of observe um my dad on sets and things like that. I think the process of yeah creating
00:29suspense is a very difficult thing and requires um yeah like a lot of kind of curation almost and
00:38then and then release to create something that feels very naturally scary. I mean I very much
00:43operated under the belief that sort of it's whatever's outside of the frame is always scarier
00:48than what's in the frame because it's your imagination running wild. So I tried to sort of
00:52play with that feeling throughout the movie.
00:59So
