Actress Etinosa Idemudia Claims Acting Is More Demanding Than Engineering
Nigerian actress Etinosa Idemudia has asserted that acting is more challenging than engineering, drawing from her experiences in both fields. In a recent appearance on the Bold Enough To Say It podcast, Idemudia described acting as an intensely demanding profession that requires significant dedication and endurance, often misunderstood by those outside the film industry.
Having transitioned from a career in engineering to acting, Idemudia contrasted the structured hours of her former profession with the unpredictable schedules and emotional investment required in acting. She emphasized the grueling nature of the profession, calling it “a crazy kind of work” that demands resilience. Idemudia urged her fellow actors to take pride in their craft and to stand firm against external judgments that downplay the seriousness of their work.
Idemudia’s comments highlight the often-overlooked challenges faced by actors and serve as a call for greater recognition of the demands of the profession.
