For me, to be perfectly honest, the part of my brain that was stimulated by directing was much more exciting than a typical day of acting.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Directing is much more satisfying to me than acting.
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.
Acting in something that I'm directing... I'm really enjoying it because, if for no other reason, that particular acting is like reading my mind on every single take. It's kind of efficient, for better or worse.
Directing films is incredibly exciting to me.
Directing was a great experience, but it's terrifying to have the responsibility of carving up the other actors' performances.
Directing is physically exciting because there's a ticking clock, you're working with people, it's very social, it's very enjoyable.
Acting had been a hobby that turned into a career, the directing was a hobby that turned into a career and music just really allowed me to find another way to express myself.
I love directing scenes that I'm not in because suddenly I really feel like a filmmaker which is a different thing.
I've done a little directing, but I love acting more.
Directing was a natural thing for me. Actually, it was far less stressful directing than being the lead actor. I was able to have my input in all aspects of it.
