When Theo von asks about avoiding pitfalls, Kevin Smith bluntly says don’t worry about time and budget, rehearse as much as possible. Smith also says that rather than striving for perfection, he goes for “good enough”.
“Good enough will take you very far. Good enough has taken me 30 years.” Smith then goes on to discuss working on set, “I want people leaving my set going, I had a good ass time.” Smith explains that by fostering relationships and a good-set environment, he has managed to keep budgets down and retain his crew. “Beyond showing up, I deliver, I just don’t make everyone’s life miserable.”
Theo Von and Kevin Smith then discuss the Rizz, Aura, also known as “the it factor.”
