Dayton/Faris Reflection


NMA Juniors and Seniors



To reflect on your video conference with directors, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, write a narrative (minimum 250 words) answering the following questions and anything else you'd like to share about the experience.


  • Jonathan and Valerie spoke a great length about what influences them. What are some influences that they mentioned have helped them in their projects and what came to mind for you about what you would like to use as an influence on your projects?
  • As a married couple, disagreements at work have greater stakes for Jonathan and Valerie. How do they manage disagreements, and would those tactics work for your projects?
  • What do Jonathan and Valerie look for when searching for a project to work on? Why is that important? Do you think your projects apply?
  • What advice did Jonathan and Valerie give about working with non-actors?
  • What was the most useful thing you took away from the conversation?

Please share this with me as a Google Doc.
