Growing up, I played football and was always one of the best on the team.

I overcame a lot of things, growing up, as everyone does.

I think a lot of social media creators have always been, like, content and haven't pushed the limits because no one else had pushed the limits before. I say to myself, 'How can I create my own TV show online every day and actually make it a real production and put effort into it?'

I started on Vine because it was such an engaging platform that was the most popular at the time. It came natural to me, and I understood the type of content I needed to make on it so that people could enjoy it. I knew it was a great start, but I had to spread my wings and create something that would last forever - a career.

Harry Potter' really harnessed the imagination of so many young-adult minds, and it's the same with the 'Divergent' series.

It's much easier to conjure characters strictly from your imagination than to have to think about whether you're representing people in a truthful way.

I never had any film training. I went to Northwestern. I studied education and theater. So it was all theater training.

I go to universities to talk to the students and teach them how to watch movies. Movies have so many elements - acting, music, art direction, costumes. I also tell them not to watch pirated movies. At the cinema, they can enjoy the big screen and the surround sound.
