Extras Callout 2023

What is an extra?

An "extra" is sometimes called a "background artist". Essentially, as an extra, you help create the scene behind the main characters while they are performing. Extras are paid according to an award wage. We have a blog on what it means to be an extra here: https://www.perform.edu.au/whats-an-extra-in-movies/

To be a great extra, you need to be someone who:

Will show up on time, and never be late
Will follow instructions
Will wait patiently
Will respect the secrecy of the project (i.e. not talk about it or publish social media posts about it) until the production company is ready to launch.

What we are looking for

Applicants with acting experience will be highly regarded - however, if you don't have any experience, please also apply. We are looking for a range of faces and body types to be a part of the show.
