“People don't live their lives in a series of scenes that form a dramatic narrative, they don't speak in dialogue, they're not lit by a cinematographer or scored by a composer. The properties of real life and the properties of drama have almost nothing to do with each other. The difference between writing about reporters and being a reporter is the same as the difference between drawing a building and building a building.” PeopleLifeWritingRealFormSpeakDifferencesBuildingDramaScenePropertySeriesDrawingReal LifeDialogueNarrativeDramaticComposerReportersLitCinematographers Author:Aaron Sorkin
“Each form of the acting is different. I think it keeps your mind active. TV, film and theater are different disciplines, as are independent films, opposed to studio films. There are differences in the size and the genre, or a period drama as opposed to a contemporary drama, or the types of characters.” ThinkingMindDifferentCharacterFilmFormDifferencesActingTvsTypeDisciplinePeriodsDramaTheaterIndependentSizeStudiosActiveContemporaryGenreIndependent Film Author:Luke Evans
“Being singer is different than being an actor, where you call up sources from your own experience that you can apply to whatever Shakespeare drama you're in. But an actor is pretending to be somebody, a singer isn't. And that's the difference. Singers today have to sing songs where there's very little emotion involved. That and the fact that they have to sing hit records from years gone by doesn't leave a lot of room for any kind of intelligent creativity.” YearsKindLittlesDifferentFactsTodaySongActorsDifferencesRoomsEmotionCreativityGoneRecordsSourceInvolvedDramaIntelligentSingersPretendingYears Gone By Author:Bob Dylan
“There's a big difference between "not caring" or being "nihilistic" about a topic and simply not being enrolled by the drama presented by other people.

They just reject ordinary dramas.” PeopleWayMeanDoeCharacterBigsCareDifferencesDramaStandardsOrdinaryDon't CareCaringAppropriateRejectsTopicsNot Caring Author:Chuck Palahniuk
“A lot of the distinctions that we make between drama and documentary are spurious. We're deeply confused about these issues. About the difference between the two, about where documentary ends and drama begins.” TwoEndsDifferencesIssuesDramaConfusedDistinctionDocumentaries Author:Errol Morris
“The biggest difference for me is that the tales really have no logical outlet, no particular infrastructure in which to present them as you would have with a film festival. There's no IMDb for audio dramas.

“The only difference between comedy and drama is that, in comedy, I'm going to utilize the tool of creating laughter to deflect discomfort and, in drama, I won't use a tool, but we're going to actually deal with the discomfort and see what comes out of it.” UseDifferencesDealsComedyDramaCreatingLaughterToolsDiscomfort Author:Romany Malco

“The magic of drama is infinitely more powerful than the magic of trickery. It is as available to the conjurer as it is to the actor. The only difference is that actors take it for granted, whereas few conjurers are even aware that it exists.” ActorsDifferencesPowerfulMagicDramaAvailableGrantedTrickery Author:Hake Talbot
