I've become notorious as a 'vertical villain' in Chinese-style mini-dramas. Being evil is fun, but draining.
Briefly

Sarah Moliski is known for her roles as a villain in Chinese-style mini-dramas, particularly on platforms like YouTube. She often portrays characters such as mean girls and has gained recognition within the vertical mini-drama space. Moliski believes that villains add essential drama to stories, providing complexity and depth to their narratives. She enhances her characters with backstories that explain their motivations, despite finding it emotionally challenging at times to act mean, particularly towards inexperienced co-actors.
In a lot of verticals, the female lead is sweet and innocent, almost like a Disney princess. But if the villain's not there, there's no story.
Being a villain is fun because there are a lot of different layers to them. They're not just mean-spirited - there's always a reason.
