Patricia Arquette's Filming Fears  8/21/06

Medium star Patricia Arquette wishes she could order the cameraman off set when she acts, because she finds the presence of the crew and their contraptions "scary".

The actress admits acting on screen doesn't come naturally to her.

She says, "I used to be so scared of the camera. It was this big, ominous presence.

"Sometimes I still get shy when I see it. Occasionally, actors say, 'Can everyone on the set move out of my eye line because it's distracting.'

"Sometimes I feel that with the camera, 'Can you get that camera out of the room too?'"
