Producing is the hardest of the three because there is almost no closure. Every time you solve a problem, another one pops up. Directing is second, and acting is the most fun.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Producing is hell, writing is frustrating, acting is really satisfying, directing is heaven.
The hardest part of directing is the choosing. Unlike an actor who can do a variety of work, it is a year of your life, you can't afford to get it wrong.
Acting is the easiest money you'll ever make in your life, and directing is probably the hardest money.
I would have to say the most challenging thing about directing is the sheer stamina because... as a director, you're always doing something. Someone always needs to talk to you. There are always decisions to be made and every day for as long as the movie goes on. So it's a marathon... You don't have to look nice, but it's all day every day.
Directing, writing, producing and starring is just too tough.
Acting, for me, is exhausting. I'm always more energized by directing. It's more intense to direct. I can pop in and express myself, then pop out again. It's a huge passion for me.
I guess what I enjoy most is directing, because it incorporates all aspects of filmmaking. Directing is in the same line as acting - both are popularity contests, and in both you're trying to tell a story through the film as a medium.
I think acting is definitely the most fulfilling, because it's the most challenging in my mind.
Directing is much more satisfying to me than acting.
I keep saying this, but the most important part of directing is casting, and the rest of it is pretty easy.
