ROBERT CRAYTON Looking Forward Michael Neely caught up with the actor riveter Robert Crayton During his down time …. How did you get involved in Acting? I literally got into it by finding something on the internet. How long have you been an actor? From where did you get started? I’ve been an actor for about 13 years now and I’m from NY but got into into it while I was in the South. As an actor you appeared in more than 88 films you have been credit with how does that feel with such an amazing accomplishment? I’ve actually been in over 100 films or projects but some are not appearing on IMDB properly for some reason, and as far as accomplishments I feel I’m honestly just scratching the surface. How many plays have you done so far? I performed several when I was child but haven’t done any in my adult life as an entertainer.
Are you working on any current projects? Yes, currently I’m working on an HBO Max series called the Staircase. What kind of roles have you performed throughout your career? Are you satisfied with them? I performed a diverse array of roles throughout my career and at first I was not satisfied with them on some level as I felt at the beginning I did not get to showcase my range as an actor!! How different is it to act in a movie and to act in a theater play? It is very different as theater performances have to be bigger in nuance and gesture as to reach the back of the theater while big motion and gestures in film come across as unrealistic or over the top, so smaller is better in film!!! Tell me about an area in which you would like to improve as an actor? I would say I would to improve in conveying fear or vulnerability which is not really a part of my everyday life!!!
In how many films have you performed up till now? Well over 100 films.
