You Can Be a Movie Extra

Have you ever fancied being in the movies, or on TV? Let's face it, who hasn't! But how do you actually go about becoming an Extra, one of those lucky people who get to mix with the stars, and appear onscreen — whether it be in a battle scene in a blockbuster movie, or walking around Albert Square — and what's more, get paid for the privilege! Unbelievably, there has never been a book which tells you exactly how to get work as a Supporting Artiste — until now. You Can Be a Movie Extra is the ultimate insider's guide (author Rob Martin is a leading casting agent, who's supplied Extras for films such as Gladiator and Harry Potter). It tells you everything you need to know, from getting on an agent's books to what to do on your first day on set, and how to make sure you keep getting regular work, whether it be in films, on TV, or in commercials and music videos!
