Real life vs Reel life.

This kind of two lifes is only experienced by Actors. Real life is that they do in their own personal life and Reel life is that they perform characters of story they act in.

Reel life comes from the imagination and it is possible to come close to reality. Real life is more unpredictable and is controlled by more variables.

I cannot speak for an actor's point of view on this since I am not one, but this is just my speculations and personal opinion. I think they (actors) can handle already what to be a life without a camera and when they act. Based on my observations, real actors are less what you expect them to be what they really are for instance, its quite shocking or surprising to see Mr. Bean being very serious when you know him as a comic. Drawing that line is a private life of the actor and its public life, basically the difference lies with the real identity hidden in the mask of smile or sadness. The showbiz world is full of people what they really are not, afterall thats the nature of that business.
