TV-makers usually don't know much about photography.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm a writer and a photographer - I'm totally aware that doesn't always translate to TV.
Making a pretty picture, an image, is a completely different thing from acting to camera.
The stigma that used to exist many years ago, that actors from film don't do television, seems to have disappeared. That camera doesn't know it's a TV camera... or even a streaming camera. It's just a camera.
I don't do a lot of guest shots on television.
I think I've been asked a lot more than most TV producers to go on-camera. But I just do what I do and don't think about the package.
Nowadays shots are created in post-production, on computers. It's not really photography.
Nobody who cooks does it with full hair and makeup in front of a TV camera.
There are a lot of directors who are knowledgeable about images, and others who aren't.
With photography, I always think that it's not good enough.
I never read about photography.
