I think you get less takes on TV than in movies.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Television moves fast, and you don't have the indulgences you have when you're shooting movies of so many takes because there are tight deadlines.
I think film requires a lot more patience and concentration and each day you're keeping the entire picture in your head throughout a two to three month film shoot. Whereas TV, especially half hour, is like doing a play a week or live theater.
In some ways, you could argue, television is doing far more interesting work than the movies. It's more fulfilling.
Movies absorb our attention more completely, I think.
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.
I actually prefer film to TV, but I don't know why. I think there's just a different energy.
Working on a film is so great because you have the luxury of more time when you're on a movie than when you're on television.
I've done a lot of TV, but not film.
Unless you're a big movie star, regular television work is going to bring you more exposure than anything. Everybody has a television; not everybody goes to the movies.
I think that because television is shot on a really fast schedule, and it gets piped into your home on a smaller screen, it's much more about character and dialogue in a lot of cases than the movies are.
