I've caught the movie star bug!  I was just an extra in a movie!
That's great! I bet you'll have a lot of people referring to you as a background artist or cast member. Apparently on a TV set the term extra isn't used that often.
The producer did call us background artists!  Made us all feel like we were good at acting.  I had a talking part, but it was background talking, so you won't hear what I say.
I've always wondered what the actors talk about when you can't hear them! I recently found out there can even be extras in grand opera or other spectacular productions.
Yeah, I think my next step is to be a "seat filler" at the Academy Awards.  
Oh, you mean a person who fills in an empty seat during an event? I bet that's how Trump gets people to go to his speeches!
Yes that's exactly what I mean! I just need a NON Harvey Weinstein type person to discover me to be famous!
Well, depending on the production the criteria for casting background actors is going to be different. I'm sure you'll find your niche role eventually!
My parents say I shouldn't go to Hollywood.  They want me to keep my day job as a Wal-Mart greeter, but I'm packing my car.  California here I come!
Well whatever your plans, make sure to get as much experience as you can. People think extras don't need talent, but they absolutely need imagination and acting skills to succeed.
