Have you ever fancied being in the movies, or on TV? C’mon, let’s face it, who hasn’t? Well actually you can, as an Extra, and what’s more you get paid for the privilege!

But how do you actually go about becoming an Extra, one of those lucky people who get to mingle with the stars, and appear on-screen - whether in an epic battle in a blockbuster movie, or just walking around Albert Square - well now a new book shows you how!

Unbelievably, there has never been a book which tells you exactly how to get work as a Supporting Artiste - until now. You Can Be a Movie Extra by Rob Martin, a leading casting agent who has supplied Extras for films such as Gladiator and Harry Potter, has written the ultimate insider’s guide, telling you everything you need to know, from getting on an agent’s books to what to do on your first day on set and how to make sure you keep getting regular work in films, on TV and in commercials and music videos!

The original paperback published in 2002 got some pretty good reviews but this new Kindle version has been fully revised and updated to 2011/12.

You Can Be A Movie Extra by Rob Martin is available from the Amazon Kindle Store
