When it comes to acting, you really have to create movement which in some ways is dancing. And dancing, I feel is very important to act as well. I wouldn't put one over the other.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Coming from dance, I feel acting is - I'm not going to say easy, because it's not. But the dance world is more hard-core.
Acting is my number one, but dancing will always be a part of who I am and in my heart. I love doing stunts when they are a part of my acting.
Acting for screen is very different from acting on stage, and then obviously when you dance... everything is a physical embodiment. But the discipline is the same approach. You have to take both things seriously; nothing well-crafted is by mistake.
Dance is something which I like to do, but acting is my passion. I would like to do good and meaty roles.
The thing about acting is you have to wait to be asked to the dance.
Acting has always been very comfortable for me, so it allows me to pay attention to other parts of the process literally while I'm acting.
Sometimes I get a little confused because with dancing I can express my emotions with my body. With acting you have to do it with your face and your expressions, and then with animated shows you have to use your voice and use your inflections. So it's definitely a challenge to transfer from each genre of entertainment.
Acting is such a huge part of my life. It really allows me to have a creative outlet and to actually be able to have an outlet to discuss openly the things that truly I think are relevant in the world, that make a difference.
As an actor, you really want to respect and honor the script. You want to try to be in the moment and you also realize that you're one part of a bigger picture and when they call action, you have your dance.
Acting is a bit of a heart and soul exercise with me. It's kind of all I've got.
