Maelfu na maelfu ya watu wanaotaka kuwa Extras katika sinema mpya ya Martin Scorsese, Ashecliffe, walijitokeza jana Boston University. Watu walianza kupanga foleni tangu saa 12 asubuhi!
Mimi nilifika saa 8:30 (2:30Pm). Walikuwa wanaingiza watu kama 300 kwa mpigo kwenye ukumbini. Tulipewa lecture kuhusu kazi ya Extra. Siku inaweza kuwa ndefu masaa 12 hadi 16, fanya kama mnavoambiwa. Fika saa uliyopangiwa etc. Walitaja na bei ya malipo, dola $100 (Masaa manane) kwa siku plus overtime, kwa wasio union. Watapiga sinema maeneo ya Boston, Medfield na Taunton, Massachusetts kuanzia Machi 6 hadi mwisho wa Juni.
Baada ya hapo, watu walipanga foleni nyingine na kutoa fomu na kipigwa picha. Weusi walikuwa wachache sana kulinganishwa na idadi ya wazungu. Najua wengi wa weusi waliotokea watapata nafasi kwenye hiyo filamu.
Kufika mezani niliwapa Acting resume na headshot. Niliulizwa kama nimewahi kuactin kama Nurse. Nikawaambia ndio, niliwahi kuacti Nurse Malika kaitika sinema, Maangamizi the Ancient One.
Kama tunavyosema kwenye dunia ya acting, 'Break a Leg'. Kama kuna mdau aliyeenda huko karibu mtoe experience yako katika hiyo Casting Call.
