Raph's Girl, are you going to try out for some of the parts? Could be fun to be part of such a huge production, even if it is just being a random person in the background that would be on screen less than half a second!

I don't think Raph's Girl lives in either of those areas (although some people around here do!).

I've been an extra several times and it really does get quite boring, depending on what it is that you're doing. I was cast as a "featured extra" in Mighty Ducks 3 and ended up with a close-up shot as I happened to be standing next to one of the actual actors. Too bad the movie itself is quite horrible...

I would if I lived on the east coast but alas I live in the ever wonderous and wet Pacific Northwest (aka Hollywood II). Thankfully tho I live in a town where movies are filmed here all the time... "There Will Be Blood", "Rose Red", and "Dunstan Checks In" have all been filmed nearby. I was able to watch the filming of "Dunstan Checks In" from my back yard. The other 2 were filmed at a castle that's 5 min from here.

I almost auditioned for The Baby Sitter's Club movie maaaaany many years ago when I lived in Germany (no clue why they had a casting call in Germany)...but I wasn't able to cuz I was too old.

I DO know some people who've been extras in films tho. Got a friend who's in the new Batman movie in fact.

I would be more than happy to get 'athletic' enough to be an extra. But I can't bend my age and I don't think I want to take a ten hour drive all the way to Pennsylvania and/or New Jersey.

Nope, pretty sure she's just calling you immature.

No. You didn't miss it. The casting call for Pennsylvania isn't till May 31st. So you have plenty of time. The filming at the University is in June.

Yeah I saw this thread and mentioned it to my friend who always gets calls when they need extras here in Philly. He just found out about it himself and if he goes I think I might tag along, could be fun.

The decepticons got their asses kicked, Starscream returns with more dudes to take revenge. Title makes sense.
