Hi, im relatively new to acting and have only been taking acting classes for a year!. But I just love acting, im a shy girl but acting gives me the oppurtunity to explore being someone else!. I have found out about an open casting call and would love some advice as I've never been to one before!.
Here is the link to the article about the casting call!.http://www!.stuff!.co!.nz/4718254a1860!.html
''The producers are seeking men and women aged 18 and over who are, "or could pass" as, Middle Eastern, Moroccan, North African and Mediterranean and ideally have dark hair and skin, or a tan!.''
Im 19 and have a tan as im english, dutch,polynesian,italian and german!.!. but am unsure if I meet the above requirements!.!. here is a picture of me!. http://tinypic!.com/view!.php!?pic=id7zaf&s!.!.!. Yes I know bad pictures I have absolutely no make up on in the third one I had just got out of bed!. The second one is the oldest (two months) and I have lost weight since then!.
Firstly do I meet the requirements and do you think I have a chance!? (Thankfully they are looking for hundreds of extras)
What happens at a casting call for extras, what will I be required to do!?
What do I need to take with me!? (do I need a resume or social security number!?)
What should I wear!?
Should I go alone or take someone with me!?
Sorry for all the questions, your help is much appreciated!. I don't have acting class till next Monday (as we are on a two week break) and won't have a chance to ask my tutor for advice as the casting call is on Saturday!. Any other tips would be welcomed too!. Im also a bit nervous about going!.!. should I go!?
also the job pays $180 per day and has catering!. Im not really concerned about payment rather the oppurtunity to learn more about the process of film production and being on set!.
Thankyou ;-)Www@QuestionHome@Com
