- Are there any aspects of Vince’s personality that you don’t like?
I don’t know I think he’s a pretty unassuming and generous person so hmmm. I don’t necessarily like his taste in women I would like to see Vince hang out with some intellectuals.
- You talked about achieving your own goals you have already made one documentary and are directing another two so would you like to direct more documentaries in the future?
Yeah I think eventually I would like to do a fiction but at the moment I’m really enjoying the medium of documentaries and the format of documenting real life and exploring my world that way.
- Is that the attraction for that it’s so different from what you do on Entourage which is all fiction and colourful?
Well fiction and narrative is often so contrived and having such experience understanding what those facades are and the illusion of it I guess I seek the more raw truth of documentaries, even though these too are contrived to a certain extent.
- About your interest in environmental issues can you tell me a bit about what sparked that and what opened your eyes to those issues?
My mother always taught me to have empathy and sensitivity for the world around me and to always keep a clean environment and be productive.
When you live in a cluttered room all of those things are calling your attention and it’s hard to focus, similarly with the world when you have pollution and environmental destruction these are all things that are demanding our attention and it’s hard for us to focus on other things.
- With all the success of your filming career is there any time left for music at all?
It’s tough but I manage. Sleep less work more.
- As the show has become very popular and you have become more famous do you get the feeling that your life is imitating the art of Entourage?
I think that a career s always up and down and you have just got to roll with this and there and are lots of lesson in Entourage for that.
- You have worked in both television and film in your career so how do they compare and differ and do you prefer one to the other?
No I think they are both invaluable outlets of expression and I’m very happy to be able to go between the two.
- What’s coming up for you over the next twelve months?
Well we start shooting Entourage season seven on January/February and until them I’m going to finish my documentary and play some music and go and spent as much time as possible snuggling up and being romantic in New York.
Entourage Season 5 is out on DVD now.
