I learned that acting is like any other profession. You put your time in, you do your homework, you show up and do your job. That's it, " DJ Cotrona tells Da Man magazine. "It's not as esoteric or ethereal or whatever as it looks from the outside when you don't understand it as much. It's very much a job. You're on a set with a crew of people all working hard to make a ton of crazy stuff happen and look seamless to tell a story. An actor is just another cog in a much bigger machine. It's a team sport."
