If you worked on a film, would you rather be:?

Question

A) A producer
B) A director
C) A set designer
D) A screenwriter
E) An actor

Please elaborate - Thank you!!

Answer 1

I would say.... E) An actor( actress in my case). I would love to be on film, I know everybody must say this, but I think I have good acting skills, and I just love being the center of attention. I would love for everybody to know my name, and if they don't know my name, then they would know my face, and say, "That's that one woman who was in that romantic comedy with Matthew McConaughy (or however you spell it), isn't she married to him too?" ; ) LOL! I know I'm dreaming, but this is the life I would love to live. I just like the celebrity lifestyle ( I guess anything is better than being 22, and working in a furniture store, but hey, celebrities might want to trade lives with me (HA!!!! That is the funniest thing I have said all day, see what I mean with the comedy?).

Answer 2

I've done everything BUT c) set designer. This is primarily because I've only worked on student films and they can't even afford a set, much less a set designer. Also, I don't really find it appealing.

The most fun is being an actor because:
a) its other people's job to make you look good
b) its other people's job to tell you what to do
c) most of the time you just have to do what other people tell you to do
d) you get to pretend to be someone like you, but not you
e) you can live vicariously through your character
f) you still need to have talent and creativity and be good at your craft.
g) you get paid the most out of any of the hardworking crew.
h) after the movie is over, the audience is more likely to remember you than say how well you were directed. They think you are the greatest actor even if most of it was directing.

I could list the pros and cons of the other roles, but that is not the question. So yeah, I'd prefer to be an actor.

Answer 3

Producer! Get to pick the material, the actors and have your nose in a bit of everything. I do love to write, but would hate having a director change my scripts too much.

Am not commanding enough to be a director, don't know that I could be in control but maintain a rapport with the cast.

Not a set designer, I don't like arranging or messing with furniture and curtains, etc. I like comfortable, practical and not too many frills.

I admire actors and actresses so, the times I've had to do public speaking were the pits. Just had to suck it up and do it, but it was hard!

I could do Wardrobe, have a good eye for clothes.
Wouldn't mind working in films at all.

Answer 4

B) A Director, I would love to be able to order around a bunch of prissy actors who think they own the world, and then decide how much money to hold back from them come the big pay day!!

Answer 5

E) An actress
I actually made one movie already, it was filmed in my school when it was empty and it lasted for almost two years.
The whole fun about being an actor is the ability to be somebody totally different from you in from of the cameras and you kinda feel like you've been that person for your entire life...

Answer 6

C)set designer-because I have experience from school perfomances and because I love being creative.
E)Actor-I like acting and changing emotions in different scenes.Sometimes I forget who I am and actually turn into that character

Answer 7

Actor. I was a stage actress for years and really miss it. I always wanted to be in a movie but never persued a career in film. It would be really cool to be in just one! Not to mention a love seen with a hot celebrity would be nice.

Answer 8

a Director

Answer 9

e) an actor because I've been acting for a while, and its something I really like to do. I show passion for my acting, and I love it! I think I would be better than the other ones at acting because I really don't just want to be famous, I read words and emotions not lines. :)

Answer 10

so i can save the world
