The filmmaker reveals why he faked footage, blew up a car, and decided on How To’s very unexpected conclusion.
You’ve said that deciding in advance that this was the final season freed you up to address subjects you didn’t feel comfortable touching on earlier. What kinds of subjects did you feel more comfortable getting into this time around?In “How to Work Out,” I deal with the impact that the show has had on my life, and the fantasy you live with as you try to reach a certain status artistically.
It’s interesting to get to the penultimate episode of the series and have you expressing what seems like genuine guilt over having misrepresented certain footage over the course of the series. Because for me, from the very first episode, this is a show that’s about constructing meaning more than it is finding it.
Yeah. Or if it does, it should be as kind of saccharine as possible, in a way. There’s some pretty shots of the skyline and stuff, but I try to make it so that it’s no tripod shots at all. Everything has to have the same hand-held quality to it.makes use of several second-unit crews to gather most of the on-the-street footage.
You’ve said that every reality TV show would seem much weirder if you just extended every shot by a few seconds, and you do that in the final run ofepisodes as well, wrapping up an interview and then showing yourself paying the subject for it. Is that something you did a lot during the run of the show?Depends on the subject. Travis Walton, the UFO guy, he is a bit more of a media personality, and those were the terms that he agreed to talk to us under. But money is rarely exchanged.
The constant struggle with loneliness is something that I feel like a lot of people can identify with. And I think that it ultimately, I hope, makes the work a lot more relatable. It’s something I’ve definitely struggled with a lot. These are real things that I’m working through in the show, like when the psychic in the package episode keeps telling me over and over again that I have commitment issues. It’s not wrong, but it’s something I’m working through.
