Spike Jonze

I respect people that are die-hard film people, but I started on video. I started on Hi8 video and mini-DV, and I made skate videos.

 And then I'd sell 50 at a time of all the crappy ones. And they could use those for practice balls. I sold sunglasses when I was in school, to all the kids in high school.
