Background Anthem "Lose Yourself"

[halfgoodhalfevil]

Some cast and crew are so nice, and other's are just a**holes. I once got chewed out for wearing a blue shirt that was too dark, so I had to wear my grey wool sweatshirt all day in the summer... in the desert; and on top of that, they didn't even compensate us for the 3hr drive to and fro.

[halfgoodhalfevil]

The only people who disliked this video must've never been extras lol. I've only been doing this work on and off for 4 years now and it's so true.

[dizzyfan0]

Doing background work off on for 30 year's. Everything is sooooo true.... this is the most funniest thang I had ever seen. Keep it' up ya'll.

[MrFerrango]

Too Funny if you have ever been a Back Ground Performer ! LOL

[AieaFlower]

I posted this on Back Stage Unscripted. Hope it helps get this great video even more attention. :) It's in my post "Background Work: How to Be a Good Extra" if you want to Google it.

[restrada10]

nice job guys charlie bogdan casting

[paex18]

You know they wrote that whole thing while doing background

[hogwashsentinel]

omg, I totally bought my own scrubs to be on medical shows...hasn't happened yet...

[jesseonthebrink]

Great video!! Ahh memories. My favorite in the litany of humiliation exercises that is background work would have to be doing crosses so shadows can be seen moving in the reflection of a car window.

[mikeyirish1967]

You guys ROOOOOOOCCCCKKKK! Keep up the good (background) work, gents -- your day in the sun (and out from behind the scenes) is coming!

[Ddayjune6]

[WolfBrat]

I can't watch a lot of shows now because you're trying to focus on whatever the actors are saying with people 'casually' walking in the background, and you can almost hear some AD tapping them on the shoulder from behind some filing cabinet saying, "ok...aaaaaaaad...go!"

Lol.

[soccergirlllll]

LOL! awesome!

[kellyhampton1000]

OMG this Video is soooo awesome guys!!!

"BG is my only fuckin' option, acting's not"! Sad but true for most hopefuls, a lot of long time BG just say screw it and become PA's, or leave the biz altogether.
