I was at a party and some squiggly looking dude with a bow tie came up and said 'How'd you like to be on TV?' Turns out he was the programming guy at the Food Network. They had me come into the office and I did a 'Ready Set Cook' with Emeril Lagasse I believe.
I had very strong feelings so the chance to make a film that deals in an imaginative way with stuff you care tremendously about is a real high. It's a really amazing thing to be able to do.
