i heard that to get a speaking part you need an agent but to be an extra is luck, be in the right place right time etc. Thats what ive heard, i dont know for sure but no one has got back to you so i thought that you might want all the info you could get. If you find out more please tell me 2, i m new as well ๐
AYE!!! I KNOW HOW!!! first.... you must get to be in another movie (cattle calls and get an extra) and then join the screenplay union, then by that you can get an agent and beg that agent to try to get you a few lines! i know that b/c i want to be an actress...
ORRR.... you can just have unbelievable amounts of luck and show up on gore vorbinski's (the director) front porch and say "i wanna be in your movie sooooo frickin bad... let me be in ONE shot w/ johnny depp and i will forever be your slave" and that's where the luck comes in.... he will probably then call the police on you or with the luck let you be in the movie.... but that won't happen so you might as well give up... ๐
