Reading
10 Read the text. Choose the correct answers.

Do you want to be on TV or in a film? Well, if you do, then why not become an extra? Extras play a very small
part in a film or TV programme. They don’t usually speak. However, they may have to walk across the set or
stand with other extras as part of a crowd.

There are many agencies that are always looking for extras and some of them are online, so it’s easy to apply
wherever you live. You usually just need to fill in an application form and send in some photos. TV and film
directors often want extras who have a particular look. For example, they may want women with long hair for
period dramas and people who look a bit scary for horror films, so try to think about the kind of programme
that you’d like to be in when you’re choosing which photos to send.

So imagine you get a call to say a director wants you in their next film. You’re really excited, but what happens
next? Well, don’t be anxious about how you’ll look on screen, as the company will do lots of work on you when
you arrive on the set. You might have to wear your own clothes, but don’t worry about your hair and make-up
as there will be staff to make you look perfect for the role.

Now, although it all sounds really exciting, be prepared to sit around for a lot of the day, waiting until you are
needed for your scene. The time can go very slowly if you don’t have anything to do, so it’s a good idea to
take a book with you on any job that you get. Take some food and drink, too – you’ll probably get lunch, but
remember it’ll be a long day!

Most extras can earn about £90 to £110 a day. This isn’t very good for the number of hours that you need to
be available, but for the actual work that you do, it’s OK. However, people usually become an extra for the
chance to be on the big screen rather than for the money. Some people hope that it may lead to a real acting
part. This doesn’t happen very often, but there are some stories of extras becoming famous because a
director saw them on a film set. However, even if you continue to just be an extra, you might get to see one of
your favourite Hollywood actors one day, and it will definitely be something to tell all your friends about!
