He had me sold when he said "My job is not film-making. My job is to be creative. My job is to express myself and to share my ideas and my point of view.". This came off to be such a profound truth, and it's so universal if you think about it. Most of us spend our lives finding that perfect job, perfect title, that elusive thing called "calling" - and all that we should rather be doing is just be ourselves at whatever we do.

@BriannaBanana1

I have a feeling that upon hearing that, Taika would give you a pep talk about how great it is that you're here, and probably how he's had the same feeling at times in his own life. I feel that feeling a lot these days, but Taika also reminds me of myself in ways after watching this, with his inability to focus on just one creative outlet, and having a drive to express himself and his viewpoint through creativity, and getting obsessed with all kinds of things over the course of his life. When he was talking about his mom's cancer and how maybe doing a series of random bodily movements would keep him from getting cancer, that struck me as a very OCD sort of thing. I can relate to that. Maybe he was totally joking, or maybe he was poking fun at actually having OCD. Idk. Either way, Taika actually gives me hope for my professional future because he reminds me of myself in the ways I've mentioned, and has gotten as far as he has now. I used to compare myself to others a lot, but over the years, it's sunk in how unhelpful that is, and how miserable it can make you. I'm still tempted to do it, but when I feel myself sliding in that direction, I try to talk myself out of it and remind myself that it isn't going to help me. Just try to focus on being better than you were yesterday. That's been a more successful approach for me. I mean, I still get down when I feel I've stagnated, but you and I both also need to be kind to ourselves. Tearing ourselves down won't get us anywhere either.

It's hard to be in a bad mood after listening to Taika

Same.

Just watched his new film What We Do in the Shadows. He has co-directed and co-written it and also plays one of the leads and it is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I think the guy is incredible. From watching this talk however it is clear he suffers from a compulsive disorder or did as a child. I'm sure he must know this, but I wonder why he did not mention it specifically, just all the symptoms.

Robert J. Williamson Whoa, agreed. He definitely has obsessive compulsive disorder. I have it too and when he mentioned thinking about cancer and having those rituals, it was all too familiar. I have it as well and construct these ridiculous meaningless rituals to stave off things that can't be controlled (to a degree). Interesting guy though.

***** - Yes, he seems at ease with it, I just noticed all the symptoms and wondered if he even knows these were part of OCD.

Taika Waititi is such a mood. Omg. Love his TEDx Talk. Love it. AAAAAA. So chaotic and so beautiful and so true and so relatable at the same time.

Thank you Taika for bringing joy into my daughter's life ... - it was a silent youth she lived and not so many same-aged cared for her when we had to move into the city - ... we missed the nature of the rural area we are from - and then you .. your fillllmms appeared into her fine and fragile life ... and I saw her smile ...and now it's JoJo raBbit time and we are waiting for it ... and are laughing whenever we grasp a spark of a spark in the dusty dark it's light you share with us - thank you Taika ✨🧚‍♂️✨

Gosh he's wonderful in so many ways

Taika, you are a sacred clown. You are real and lovely. Thank you! I LOVE your wacky sweet humor and the way you think. You are exactly the one to demonstrate by your life what creativity is.. By getting people to laugh and open up they receive the important things you share. Stay weird and kind and funny. Thank you! With Love!

"Are you ready to Taika Waititi?" Oh, angel, can you ever be truly ready for the force of nature that is Taika Waititi?

The fact that were are even here to experience life through human eyes is a success in itself, such an easy thing to forget. Mr. Waititi you are full of lovely idiosyncrasies and creative wisdom :)

I really enjoy "There you are" as a greeting.

I love him as Viago from What We Do In the Shadows😍😍

This guy is just pure chaos and I love it!

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH OMG "you're wasting my time by clapping" i was dying the whole time aha

He’s so genuine and funny! I love taika waititi. Watched jojo rabbit with my kids. They laughed hard and cried hard and then watched it again the next day. It was amazing

hes come soooooo far now, just box officed 150 mill and made such an awesome marvel movie. I saw him years ago and some of his short movies and also what we do in the shadows which was such a great watch. Respect sir Respect

From then to What we do in the shadows, Hunt for the wilderpeople and Thor ragnarok now. Taika has grown so much. Still humble. Such a nice and talented human being.

"You can't use up creativity. The more you use the more you have." -- Maya Angelou

I instantly fell in love with Taikis works starting with Eagle Vs Shark. I'm so happy he's starting to get more recognition.

What a great guy. He's got a lot of heart.

Who would have thought that a fairly small director from New Zealand would completely change the face of the character of Thor, and many would even say he saved the character.

This guy ended up directing the mandalorian episodes in season one. During making off footage he's also werid as f. I love it.

One of the greatest human beings to ever exist.

Congratulations to him for his FIRST oscar win !!

How did this man repeatedly said he has no idea what he is talking about, and yet I surprisingly found this talk enormously informative?!

I don’t think you understand I’m in love with this man

And boom there's an oscar for writing for this brilliant man

Coming here after watching Thor: Ragnarok. I had already seen Hunt for the Wilder People beforehand, and after listening to this TED talk, I really like Waititi's perspective on the creative process. Great director!

And now he's directed one of my favorite MCU films, Thor:Ragnarok. So not just a genuinely funny guy, but a talented director too.

I have no words to convey how much I adore this man and how much he inspire me in everyway. I hope he keeps creating and keeps inspiring people. Mr. Taika Waititi I raise my glass to you. Thank you for being here

He is doing Thor 3!!!!!!! He is an amazing director!

And then you guide them and shape them and make sure they don’t spend all the money on leather jackets.” Ha ha, leather jackets, love the FOTC reference. It is a star move though, very rock'n roll!

Yes that is genius! A perspective that would never have occurred to most of us.

its always a relief hearing from other creatives that didnt choose like the ONE thing to output ideas. Since im clearly all over the place from writing to painting or video creating

Cool to hear someone so accurately describe and portray OCD

My own OCD was triggered watching this and then I read your comment and it clicked why 😂

When I first went public with my artwork I quickly met my first art critic and he tried to convince me to essentially pick a style and stick to it... but well, I'm sorry, there's too much interesting territory out there to be explored (especially since I was just starting out & in my 20s) to limit oneself so easily. Sure, I guess it makes the critic's job easier, lol, but I have much more fun as an artist just surprising myself here and there, trying new things & seeing where these ideas lead me. Fail often, fail upward. 'Nuff said. /out
