Sterling K. Brown, multi-Emmy winning, taking some directing from John Huertas. Hey Sterling, let me talk to you about this moment.
I thought he was gonna look at me like, John, come back over there to the chair. But he was very, very, very open.
I've been on a show where it was like that. Really? A couple times on Castle. Why is this? And this director would ask me, hey, can you try this? And it's something I know I just did. But they obviously, you know, because sometimes when you're directing, I will say this, you know, you've got three actors on, you know, it's a wide shot, right? You've got three actors.
And I'm watching, you know, I might watch one actor. I'm focusing on this one because this is like kind of the fulcrum of the scene or whatever. So I'm watching this, and then I might, you know, and then... I would say that maybe when I would be like, why is this person walking up on me is because I know that they probably weren't paying attention to what I was doing.
And now they're saying, try this. And you did that already. And I did that already. And then I'd be like, so they'd walk away and I'd turn to the guy who played my partner, Seamus. I'd be like, I'm gonna do the same shit. And I would do it. And then I'd yell behind the camera. How was that? Was that what you were looking for? That was perfect, John. Thanks. And I'd look at Seamus like...
Yeah, and that's the thing. You don't want to be the one bogging it down. And that's why I always say to directors that are coming from behind the camera or coming from the editing bay, I'm like, yo, man, have you taken an acting class? because it would be really beneficial if you knew our language.
So if you want to get something from an actor to understand how to ask them for it, instead of saying like, you know, can you do it again? But maybe this time, I don't know.
Because faster is a trigger word.
Yeah, an episode of television. Yeah, yeah. It's definitely my first experience directing. Just traffic before that. Yeah, I used to be... Over this way. Get out of here. Air traffic control.
It's fine. Ken doesn't know what a podcast is.
No, I learned a lot of great stuff. Look, he's so sweet. He's so sweet.
I did The Company You Keep. You did The Company You Keep with Milo. A couple episodes of The Rookie, Rookie Feds. Okay. Yeah, I'm doing The Irrational.
Only if it's something that a friend is doing. Something very, very, very interesting or something I'm developing. I like being behind the camera.
Not as much. It's got to be something cool. I'm doing an animated show, which is cool. For Disney, it's a lot of fun. It's a Latinx show. It's with Rita Moreno. I'll best be doing that show. Okay, okay. That's, you know, it's like, it's got to be really, really interesting for me.
I'm not trying to, you know, I'm not going to, I'm not really guest starring on shows or trying to get another, you know, long run on a procedural or something like that. Unless it's something that I've developed. We have a couple of shows set up when I, like Amazon Alliance Gates. We'll take them out and see what happens.
Eight years.
While I was in the Air Force, I studied musical theater. Musical theater? Yeah, because they paid for it, for most of it.
I was like, I got to get to work. I want to see and do and try everything. everything this planet has to offer. And so, you know, I want to go see things, I travel. But then I also want to try things. I might not be an expert at anything, but I'll be pretty good at a lot of things. Oh, yeah.
Because, you know, I know that the best way to learn is from failure or from mistakes. So even if I do try something and it doesn't work out, I've learned something, obviously. And it's going to be a piece of information that I can always come back to and use in life. So, yeah, I'm going to try everything. I'm going to do everything. Except golf. I really don't know what I'm talking about.
Same.
