I usually have no fear talking with celebrities, but I was nervous that Willem Dafoe would be ultra serious. Turns out he’s very approachable and extremely, extremely friendly. And very quick witted. I like being on camera with stars, but it usually is work. I’m trying to draw an interview out of them that can be edited into a usable piece, they’re trying to be clever and quotable. This time, though, I really felt like I was hanging out with a cool guy who liked talking to me. So it is either that Willem Dafoe thinks I’m cool or he’s just a great act—HEY!

I interviewed many celebrities yesterday and today (and more tomorrow) but these are the only photos that’ve made it from memory stick to JPG.
