Personal Insights
Day-to-Day
We got to the location, changed into the costumes and were driven to the set. We waited until our scene was ready and we did our thing. Most of the time we just did what the assistant director told us to do.
Best Day
I said hello to Brad Pitt and he said hello back. We also taught him swear words in Chinese.
Worst Day
The location was a prison and we shot our scene first. Afterwards we had to wait until the end of the day until we were allowed to get changed and go home. So basically it was a whole day of waiting. Money is good and you might get to meet famous actors.
What I Like
Money I guess.
What I Dislike
The waiting around.
Perks
Money is good and you might get to meet famous actors.
Personal Comments
If you can tolerate waiting around for long periods then this job isn’t too bad. Work is infrequent too. You’ll get a job when the agency has work for you.
