Reading

Do you want to be on TV or in a film? Well, if you do, then why not become an extra? Extras play a very small
part in a film or TV programme. They don’t usually speak. However, they may have to walk across the set or
stand with other extras as part of a crowd.
There are many agencies that are always looking for extras and some of them are online, so it’s easy to apply
wherever you live. You usually just need to fill in an application form and send in some photos. TV and film
directors often want extras who have a particular look. For example, they may want women with long hair for
period dramas and people who look a bit scary for horror films, so try to think about the kind of programme
that you’d like to be in when you’re choosing which photos to send.
So imagine you get a call to say a director wants you in their next film. You’re really excited, but what happens
next? Well, don’t be anxious about how you’ll look on screen, as the company will do lots of work on you when
you arrive on the set. You might have to wear your own clothes, but don’t worry about your hair and make-up
as there will be staff to make you look perfect for the role.
