Would you be a film extra?

Would you be an extra in a film? The catch being you had to pay for it.
 
There is to be a sequel to Mike Basset England Manager, but they seek fans donations to fund it.
 
Various levels of finding are available - http://talksport.com/football/mike-bassett-interim-manager-trailer-england-boss-back-141110123769

 

Would you/wouldn't you, and is this something you think we will see more of?

I was actually once in the back ground of a TV product filmed in one of my previous work places, I actually was asked to speak but I bottled it and asked to remain in the background.

I wouldn't do it, not even now.

It seems fun but that said, its not really me. I could see @hissingdwarf being a great film/tv extra.

Not at their price, but if I was paid......?

I comb my tash four to five times per the hour, I have sliffin' appearence good enough to be a film extra.

No, I don't think I could to be honest.

no, no, no... no cameras in my face please.

I would if I was paid but I certainly wouldn't pay them. I used to work with someone who used to be an extra in films and television programmes, he used to take his holidays from work and spend several days in film sets while filming was taking place, he was paid but when I watched some of the things he appeared in it was a case of don't blink or you'll miss it!

I try to be as far away from being on tv as possible.. hiding away in the background, or even a camera for that matter. I once went on stage at a concert and as the microphone was coming closer to me i was moving further into the crowd of other people.

I'm not one for the "5 minutes of fame" so for me no thank you.

 

With regard to the funding aspect I am surprised that more & more people aren't doing this, just think how much they could charge for a lead role

[Super_Danny_Allsopp]

I wouldn't pay to do it. I would do it if they paid me well enough though

[PTID1862]

@Northants Pie hell the leading role would be expensive but maybe worth it, how much do you put on the bedroom scenes with Angelina

Ballerina or Jolie?........ 

[PTID1862]

@Northants Pie I think I will stick to Jolie thanks

I wouldn't mind being an extra in Corrie, maybe stood at the bar in the Rovers, or a good old gossip with Norris! Lol
