Unlike some (few) crew, I don’t have a smug view on the world of production and think that my job goes too unnoticed – in fact, I think that’s how it should be. But, I do think the most professional actors/actresses are the ones that can acknowledge that filmmaking is as much about their craft as everyone else.
Whether that means hitting a mark like Michael Caine or doing more takes as Terry O’Quinn says, having talent that appreciates the technical nature of what a crew does is a relief to everybody on set. As O’Quinn says in the video, “it’s as much their art as it is yours.”
