I think it's why I tend to make character studies. I subconsciously tried to figure out fictional characters in an effort to understand people in general. Nicky is really good at manipulating emotions in vids. She should tell me all of her secrets so I can make people cry their own tears and be evil like her.
I listen to a lot of DVD commentary tracks and gleam little nuggets of information. Directors that also edit their films have the best knowledge from what I can remember. Most of the time I dig up an article and incorporate it into a vid idea. It's fairly slow going and I don't know how well I actually accomplish my task, but it's enjoyable.
