Extras, Doubles, Stunts, Stand-ins.....are Professionals.

Happy New Year...

Educating some.....

There are many ignorant people who are often confused with the many union professionals that work in the film and TV business. There is first unit or second unit production on camera jobs.
Here is a explanatory video to illustrate the important work that extras, doubles, stunts, stand-ins do as member's of the film's cast to help produce a project.....





In fact many major stars have all been extras or background performers, stunts, doubles, stand-ins in their film or TV careers. Sometimes it was credited or uncredited work on camera or off.  Those jobs often lead to more creative performance roles as with bit parts, weekly contracts, or day player professional union jobs.(Google it)
