I left for storytelling and film/tv. If anything, it's more taxing, so there's that.

  What factors make storytelling and film more taxing, deliver scripts on time, shoot the scene, video processing? I'd think that fixing bugs on a tight schedule and delivering features would be more taxing? It depends on setting as well I presume.

    Writing scripts itself is the most relaxing part of the job, it takes some concentration though. Film and TV production is on a whole other level. Breaking down scripts for production schedule and framing everything within a budget and then talking to a lot of people where their job is to take your money and yours is to keep it. Then keeping track that everything is in order for production to take place and solving lots of last-minute crises, everything involving a lot of people. If it's a live TV type of situation or there's an oversight from larger production, stress gets amped up a lot. It's a busy hive, somewhat like an organised chaos where most of the work is handling people and being handled by people. That's production. Pre-production alone is, more or less, stress free process. That might be a direction to explore if you're art or organization oriented.
