Disclaimer: Neither the author nor are affiliated with any of these productions or casting agencies.  The requirements for every production are both specific and diverse.In New York and Los Angeles, most background work is found through agencies for which one pays a subscription fee. Their information is then placed in a database of available talent, which is made available to the various casting people for each individual project.  As filming becomes prevalent in other cities like New Orleans and Atlanta, more and more of these agencies are popping up. Some offer free registration, so whatâs the harm, right? Should you pay? Thatâs up to you, but just be aware that no matter how much or how little you pay, there are no guarantees they will get you in front of the cameras.To get you started, hereâs a sampling of productions currently seeking extras. In the coming weeks and months, weâll keep you updated with new opportunities as they arise. Pretty much every film needs them, and some more than others. If Iron Man is saving the population of entire cities, they canât all be in the other room. Audiences need to see hundreds of people running and screaming in the midst of the controlled chaos. When Jackie Robinson makes history by taking the field, it would be a pretty hollow effort if no one is in the stands to cheer him on. You get the idea. So are you ready for your close-up? Hit the jump for more on Iron Man 3, Machete Kills, CBGB, Grown Ups 2, The Smurfs 2, The Walking Dead, and more.
Now that weâve told you whatâs filming where, instead of just watching the action from behind the police barricades, perhaps youâd like to be in front of the cameras.If that sounds like something you might be interested in pursuing, let us point you in the right direction towards the people who are hiring this key element to any movie. Theyâre referred to in different ways: background artists, atmosphere and the most common sobriquetâextras.
