Transcript
00:00The second Embrace episode of Modern Love sent me through a lot of emotions in a very short time.
00:05And I'm curious, yeah, what your response was when you first read the script?
00:10Well, it sent me through a lot of emotions in a very short space of time as well.
00:14That's exactly what I was like, you know, I haven't watched the first series.
00:18And on purpose, I didn't watch it because I didn't kind of I like to just go to filming without really knowing how it's supposed to look and be.
00:24Rather, I'm just inside it. So I wasn't even realizing how short it was.
00:28I was just thinking, that's a lot. That's a lot that happens.
00:32Like that's a lot of intense. And that's very quick turns we've got to make.
00:37And then I think, how am I going to do that? I think brilliant. A challenge.
00:42I love that challenge. And I just also I'd never really done that kind of genre.
00:46It's sort of rom-com-esque, I suppose. And it has that essence of that.
00:50And I'd never really done something like that before.
00:53So I was really wanting to try something like that.
00:57And also, I love Tobias's work. So I got to work with Tobias and John Carney.
01:01Great director. And I'd love some of his films.
01:04And so it was just a great sort of chance to sort of meet, work with these creatives.
01:09And we'll see you in the next video.
