I enjoy the character interplay. Sometimes the audience is not laughing, but smiling, and that is almost just as good because it keeps them ready to laugh. Keenen Ivory Wayans
I go through a whole process with the actors first, building and creating characters, then I encourage them to sort of live in that character when they're in the screen. Keenen Ivory Wayans
I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer. Keenen Ivory Wayans
I think a lot comes from having the experience of doing stand-up comedy. It allows you to figure out the psychology of an audience; what things are funny and not. Keenen Ivory Wayans
It's rare that you cut out something that is really good. You screen all of it, and when the audience doesn't respond, you cut out whatever is holding the story down. Keenen Ivory Wayans
