How to be an extra in a movie?

How do I become an Extra in a Zombie Movie?

  • I do not want a career as an extra or to be anything else other than a zombie in a zombie movie, so joining an agency seems like a waste of time and money. I don't want a big part or an amazing length of screen time. I just want to stumble around a bit moaning "braaaains" and perhaps have some prosthetic zombie nastiness. Does anyone know how I can achieve my ambition of being an extra in a zombie movie??

  • Answer:

    the best thing is to look on the web.i know this sounds easy but on sites like this one http://www.larrytech.biz/frightfest/viewtopic.php?p=17633&sid=62e5a092fe20d89f74444239fa22ac91 people advertise for extras in small low budget films.through this i found out about the london zombie walk '07 which they filmed in leicester square in london.it was great got some great make up done filmed by lots of different people for various projects and even made it onto CNN.you can see some of the results on youtube.just type london zombie walk,or bank holiday of the living dead.

If you don't end up finding a film, when August rolls around look up the high end haunted houses in your area and apply for a seasonal position. The pay is crap, but it can be a lot of fun. If there is a "Haunted Hotel" branch in your city I know they use zombies every year.

Last year there was a guy who was making a student film in Hitchin Hertfordshire and he needed loads of extras to be Zombies and what he did was put an advert in one of the local papers and the college magazine. He needed about 30 extras and over 2000 people turned up. So my advice would be to contact your local college for details of their media studies or film classes and see if any budding director is planning on making a zombie film!

Dont get washed or do your makeup in the morning and go to a film studio and tell them you want to be a zombie and they will hire you straight away
