I responded to a casting call!

When I say responded, I really mean that I was contacted about being an extra in a new drama series here in Denmark.

It's a 10 episode prime time drama series, and I am going to be in three scenes. One where I am a passer by on a street, one where I am business like, and one where I am a homeless person.

It's gonna be extremely exciting, and I cannot wait to explore this new acting world. Granted, an extra isn't the same as being an actor, but it's a step inside. I have no lines, though, so it's purely a background role. But it's gonna be exciting none the less!

I am paid a gift certificate worth $30, but it's not the pay that makes me want to do it.

Who knows, maybe this job as an extra will result in more roles as an extra. I know some people make a living off it, so we'll see!

Extra money always comes in handy.
That sounds like fun. laugh
This is the synopsis for the show: "We are at a restaurant. Couples are chatting, friends are eating dinner together, some guest asks for more wine. A little girl is sitting by the window. Today is her birthday and she is celebrating with her mother. Suddenly the door opens. Two men enter. Carrying automatic weapons they start shooting. Cut to 10 days earlier. We meet our eight leading characters in medias res - in the lives they happen to be living, with happiness and challenges big and small, and the unencumbered feeling that life will last forever. But we know that something is inevitable and the journeys our characters are making suddenly become tales of destiny."

It really sounds like my kind of show!

That is fun for you alright thumbs up

The payment is miniscule though. You'll probably have to take a few days off your regular job for it. There could be lots of takes just for a few seconds of footage.

Best of luck.
