BG PA vs. Extra

[BradHighlandFilms]

Guh, I just spent a week herding background.

[MasterXcon]

iv seen this happen on set

[questingQuentin]

This is probably my favorite of all the carebear movie production clips... My feeling is that even though the PA was speaking harshly, he was actually being very patient. I mean, how far does an extra have to go before he or she is sent home? "Give me your voucher" (tears it up and walks away).

[questingQuentin]

@questingQuentin I also recommend Producer vs Actor by auditionssuck AND no respect for the script supervisor by meredithcrandell

[AshiNukka]

Some PA's are just as big of idiots as some Extras. You're one step ahead of being extras get over yourself.

this is funny but true, i wished crew wuld not b jealous of union BG just becozwe make more per hour and do less work, and i think they should just not hire union bg that are like that or cash ppl who don't even know wat the eff 2 do. As union bg, most are professional, its the few that are rotten apples, but i just wished crew wuld cut us some slack just because they dun like that we do less work and get paid more or that their union is shitty etc... Respect every1, and hire only professionals

[zammap]

LOL I did extra work before and just sitting in holding and listening to everyone else talk about themselves I was like WOW. I think extra work is amazing, because you just sit there and get paid, and as an artist I can work on my art while in holding LOL. But these people bitched so hard , spoiled dicks.

[paigeepooh19]

@zammap I totally agree. it's basically free money. you just show up, do crowd shots, like, dancing, or cheering, or other stuff like that. it's fun and easy. yea, you may have to wait for long periods of time so they can re-set and stuff, but people should be grateful they got a call back for work. i've had the same experience w/ people like that.

[mrghonea]

i feel like i've heard or had this exact same conversation as an AD.

[alarkra]

HA, YES!! Spot on... God I loathe extras, they do my head in... they are paid far too much to do sweet FA and then they bitch about it... Gah!

[gpwilliams2000]

Actors are all Warm Props!

[rafterscott]

I remember on one set a PA referring to her job as herding cats. So true.

[ccheng21]

i've never heard of a PA who actually cared about anything on set.

[misscanadianchix]

Omg this is the funniest ever. I'm an actor & have done extra work as well. This is so effing hilarious haha!! 5 stars

[jazzmb88]

[stephentako1]

So sad.... I have felt like a 2nd class citizen doing extra work. Don't they realize that when I make it big, they are going to be really happy I was in their movie?!?

[Hamburgerman]

sounds like several conversations i had with extras on Friday Night Lights at the Astrodome!

[jakeyarberry]
