As an actor, a Dogme film is not that big a difference. You don't have to wait for the lighting, so you get a better rhythm. It's the camera guy and the editor and the sound guy who are in trouble. Because they can't do what they're used to doing.

I rarely do any back story. I often get a thick bible of back story, but I can't use it. The back story is a tool of the writer. But I can only act what's in the scene.

I enjoy smaller projects, especially by newcomers, where there is more energy than on bigger productions. And there's the pleasure of seeing the final result.
