If I surround myself with extras, let a director talk to me like an extra, accept the salary of an extra, then I’m an extra. And pretty soon I’m driving around with hats and assorted outfits in my trunk hoping that when they call me I will be ready – to be an extra. If you want to act, act and only act. And yes, there are easier ways to get a SAG card.
