Actor Growth

While working on Farewell Atlantis it was very neat to talk to the different types of people who were working on the film as background performers. I was meeting people such as script writers, artists and even real estate agents.

Many people say that background work is a good way to break into the business. I think that notion is true when it comes to networking with others. This is why too I always find it amazing like with that little ruffle that I saw on set as you never know who you could be talking to which should give you more of a reason to be nice to everyone you meet.

Most often too when you see people reading a book or watching something on their laptop, I have found that they would rather be socializing to meet new people. I have personally never met an anti-social person on set before. I have even seen business exchanges happen on set. So if you ever do even simple things like the background work, take the opportunity to meet as many people as possible I’d say.
