be a movie extra

Just a small part, stood in the background behind the main characters, don’t have to speak or anything, just to be there on the big screen for a fleeting moment would be a dream come true.

Perhaps I should crack on with the screenplay/s I want to write then I could negotiate a walk on like Hitchcock!

I just think it would be great to see myself on the big screen, without all the notariety

I don’t know why but i just want to.
I have to do dumb standardized testing right now!!!
:(

do you need to audition to be a movie extra?

I wouldn’t care if I saw myself on camera, I just want to be involved! It would be such a great experience. Unfortunately, I live in Minnesota. People hardly ever film in Minnesota, unless you count documentaries, which I really don’t. How cool would it be to run through the halls of Hogwarts with a crowd of Ravenclaws, or sit next to the Pevensies on the train to school; laugh and walk with a group of people you met two hours ago, across the boardwalk behind the star of the show. It would be so much fun! You’d get to dress up, be on the set, meet people, have a great time, and you’d be able to say you’d done it! I know it’s mostly just being there, and that it’s long hours, but I’m really passionate about film-making. I would love to actually act in a movie as well, but that’s pretty much 100% insured that it will never happen. Ah well. I’ll add it to my list anyway;)

I think it would be so cool to be an extra in a great movie. you get to go behind the scene’s but you dont have to learn all the dialogue the main actors do

It’s really, really cool!
I’ve done it for some local productions and small movies and most of the time you don;t do more that hang out for hours and hours. But if you are passionate about film making like I am, it’s worth it. I got to know a lot of producers and actors and at the network you make is amazing.
Everyone should try it!

I’ve consulted on movie sets but never have been in a movie. I just want to be the guy that walks across the street.

I’m on TV next week – as an extra about Jack The Ripper, through a contact at my drama group!! Excellent!

I give it a marginal thumbs up.
