I added myself to a couple of those "extras" websites a while back. I've had one or two to actually go for, not great payers, but worth the experience to do them.
Lately a couple of casting agents have contacted me out of the blue, so I guess my profile must be reaching people. So far nothing much has come of it.
But today I got sent a query, asking if I would be available for something in a week or two for one days' filming, not bad money for "up to ten hours" ... and happily its quite close by to where I live. So I said yes, sure, why not.
But here's the thing:
They want me for a background extra, being a 17th century housemaid being given a bath with a bucket of unceremoniously-thrown cold water ( ). Naked. ( )
So yeah, I've not got issues about shape or size, cos after all, I'm probably the right shape and size for a buxom house wench and that's the way they bathed their house wenches back then (apparently) and I'm sure that they've all seen naked fat women in their filmings before (and if they haven't, well they're just about to )
And hopefully they'll rush over with fluffy white towels afterwards and make sure I have a nice cup of tea and biscuits to make me feel better.
BUT ... it also asks if you've got any tattooes or piercings, which obvs a housemaid wench wouldn't have a tattoo of a hellkat on her upper right arm, would she ... and I guess even if they put make-up over it (its only a little one), if I am gonna be being sloshed with water, it might wash the make-up off.
So I might not get it.
But I acknowledged that I was available anyway.
Time will tell. Fingers crossed.

I'd left the garden (alright, wilfully neglected it) for about the last three months. Today, I bit the bullet and harvested the hayfield mowed the lawn and hacked my way through the jungle pulled up all the trees weeds.
Just one year ago, I'd never have been able to do all that in one session, so all this working out is paying off in practical terms

Often though, the scenes they're in don't even make it to the actual finished product. One example was my friend was a woman in a queue in a fish and chip shop. They shot 8 goes at it. My friend was not allowed to eat the food that was cooking. She stood in there for hours feeling hungry in the greasy air. Sure she was paid nicely but to not be given a chip and not to make it to the final cut slightly annoyed her!
The water. Warm water looks the same as cold water or do they want you to yelp a little as they throw it? |
Yes I am aware that even if I stand around all day having water chucked at me, it might not make it into the finished product.
The first one I ever did, a few months ago now, where I was one of a bunch of mourners at a wake, and I went prancing into the kitchen and said "Oh, is this the lunch they said they'd provide for us?"
The two ladies buttering jam sandwiches glared at me and said "No, these are props, nobody is allowed to eat them."
I'm hoping the water will be warm(ish) and I just have to make an "oh thats cold" noise.
If not, well I'm 'ard
HKP: Once I know, I'll let you know, just in case it doesn't get chucked out on the cutting room floor. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

Awoke feeling creative. Ideas whizzing about.
Some of my 'best' thoughts are just before sleep so there is now a recorder at the bedside where I whisper them.
Everyone is having a well deserved lie-in and I've been processing audio of babbling brooks.
Off to Goyt valley later.

Yeah, I have a feeling if it was him throwing the bucket of water Hellkat would probably waive her fee ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Didn't get to Goyt but did record a nice squeaky kissing gate when we went out for a walk. Beautiful evening...warm and clear.
Squeaky gate and a bubbling brook have been inserted into the modular and with the new update to the Disting MKIV I feel happy.
It's been running for half n hour and it reminded me of being very high but without the sweaty hands.
Something must be in the air as me old mucker (we visited last night...lives next to brook) played me the beginnings of a new song. It's as good as he's ever done..and the guy was good enough to be invited and played Glastonbury (village hall ).
Savouring the moment.
It'll be sh1t again soon. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

Finding a bottle of proper job at the back of the fridge when I thought I was out of beer and I'm too over the limit
to drive to the shop. Thank you beer gods. I've just scoffed 8 fish fingers and was needing a drink. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Mmm... cool but not chilled would be preferable but you can't have everything. For some reason my local has rotated the stock: all summer the ciders were on the shelves and all the ales were in the fridge ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 4 years, 230 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
