I sat down recently with Mania.tv for an in-depth interview about web video, The Guild and Dr. Horrible.

EXCERPT FROM INTERVIEW:
Mania: As an actress and as a producer, what are the good and bad parts of producing a web series versus working in a more traditional medium?

Felicia Day: Well, of course the budgets are not even comparable. The money they spend on wardrobe on a TV show exceeds our whole budget for an episode. I do love the control of creating what I want without having to think “politically”, and that we’re inventing the rules as we go along. There are no rules, so we make them up. It’s the wild west. I also love the fact that we have such a quick turnaround, and get instant feedback from fans when we post videos, good and bad. 🙂

Mania: What’s the absolute most difficult part of producing and maintaining a web series?
