The soap itself is filming 60 pages a day or 50 because commercial break.
So you're doing an hour of television every single day.
Unless the light fell on your head, you're getting one take.
There's just literally not enough time.
Yeah, well, and they can because they have three cameras, at least back then, proscenium style, three cameras, and they're live editing in the booth.
So out of the corner of your eye, you could see if camera one, the red light comes on, you know, now it's on you and all that kind of stuff.
I feel like this is incredible training in so many ways.
I'd never been in front of a camera before.
dialogue right you're doing 20 pages a day a total muscle because when i first got there it took me two weeks to learn 10 pages and by the end just as like a bet we would do these character episodes where our character would be in the entire episode so again 55 pages whatever when it got time to be mine they were like do you want to do it in one day i said yes and i did yeah
And I knew what I was doing.
But that's a crazy muscle.
But you can exercise it.
It is wild, though, isn't it?
