Film and television is just a different technique in terms of how to approach the camera but basically the job is the same; but what you learn as a craft in theater, you can then learn to translate that into any mediums Picture Quote #1

I do miss sometimes being onstage, because when I do film and television, it’s usually so brief and funny Picture Quote #1

I think there are certain technical things about acting that change between working in film and television. Everything definitely slows down and we have more time in film Picture Quote #1
