Ever dreamed of being a movie star? Come on, don’t be shy now… there are countless people who enjoy musing what it would be if they could get to the other side of the silver screen and play their favorite heroes. Why should you be any different? It’s not like there’s shame to being human and wanting things.
In all circumstance, and without meaning to burst no bubble, I should remind you that it’s not exactly easy getting in the movie industry - well, not by the front door, anyway. You see, the more I think about it, the more I realize there’s just too many people who want to get to the top straight away, without climbing some sort of a career ladder. In the movie industry as well as any other industry, that’s always bad reasoning.
In my opinion, learning the ropes is always the best way to get started doing anything, as well as getting some kind of practical hands-on experience. What I’m trying to say is… why should you be so concerned with pursuing and elusive goal, when there are practical goals you could be striving towards right now, that could set in in course towards higher flights? I’ve been told about this company called Talent6 which specializes in recruiting extras for movies and tv shows. The pay is actually not so bad ($100-$300 / day), and it could very well present with with a window of opportunity eventually… or at least it’ll allow you to see what it feels like to work in the industry. So if you want to be a star, this is my advice for you… head held up high, feet planted firmly on the ground… keep walking and who knows? Maybe you’ll get where you want.
