Quotes by Kathy Kolla:
| "You just have to believe in what you're doing and believe that's the best thing for you. I've always stood up for my own beliefs instead of following other people." |
| When asked where the idea for the movie World's Littlest Brat originated, she answered: |
| "Well, being a vegan myself for over ten years and caring about the environment, I wanted to make an informative, highly humorous and entertaining film regarding these issues. We came up with a character idea about an outsider who manages to stay true to his beliefs and keep his intentions really positive despite all the criticisms and negativity in the world." |
| She also cares a lot about environmental issues and tries to have a green movie set. |
| "What we're doing is photocopying double-sided so we don't waste paper, and we're only giving copies of scripts to people that really need them instead of handing them out to everyone. We're really trying to keep everything to a minimum, trying to watch what is being thrown away, and trying to reduce and reuse instead of throwing everything in the trash." |
| "We have Amy’s Organic Kitchen. They’re offering a lot of vegan, vegetarian and organic food to feed our crew and cast members. Also, Glacia Icebox is offering us bio-degradable cardboard water boxes as an alternative to plastic. People (crew and cast) are going to bring their own water bottles and refill them, but when we go on location or something when we need to have portable or disposable water we’re going to use Glacia Icebox. ... We’re also going to highlight these products in the film. ... Bringing the consciousness to the set as well as to the audience." |
