A biography for Steve Carrhasn’t been written yet.
“I learned how to tell stories with Jay-Z on 'City Is Mine.' I learned how to film and choreograph dancing on 'Can I Get A...,' and I got to kind of be a documentary filmmaker with 'Hard Knock Life.'”
“There are a lot of films that come out for kids, and the parents have to suffer through it.”
“I've worked on a set before, know something about cameras, and done some editing.”
“'City Is Mine' was a real big video for me and a good opportunity to learn how to play out a scene.”
“What I've always loved are movies like 'When Harry Met Sally'... and 'The Sure Thing.'”
“One of the important things to look at is kids who aren't cheerleaders or aren't the student-body presidents. In 'Daddy Day Care,' one of the kids would only communicate in Klingon. I get that kind of a kid.”
“I didn't go to film school; I studied fine art - I learned how to be a filmmaker on everybody else's money.”
“My sketchbook became everything to me.”
“I express myself through my art.”
“Mine has been a pretty strange path.”
“I've done hip-hop videos, family comedies, a quirky comedy.”
“I remember when 'Daddy Day Care' came out, I saw fathers and their sons and daughters walking out of the theater and talking about the movie. That's the neatest thing.”
“I always felt a little bit on the outside.”
“It's easy to scare people. It's easy to shock them. But making people laugh and making them feel is a big challenge.”
“There are a lot of action movies with very little comedy.”
“I wanted to do something raw and raucous and R-rated. But then 'Middle School: the Worst Years of My Life' came to me. One reason I took this movie on is because I saw it as a really great opportunity to revisit my own past through this character.”
