Amputees wanted as film extras

[Guest Guest75]

As the title says...........

 

I have been working on set on a major TV/Film production set in 1915 based around the Galipoli tradgedy. ( said hello to Charles Dance the other day).

 

 

The casting company are seeking amputees to be extras in the battle scenes locally.

Paid work , long days and will be cold!

 

If you fit the bill please contact me and I'll pass you on to the casting company.

Last week they wanted a bloke with his index finger missing - some very specific shot required for this project!

They also want skinny English men and Turkish-looking men - contact Angela Heesom casting if you fit the bill! They do seem to be leaving it incredibly late to find all thsse extras, I have to say!

Well planning and Galipoli have a history of not being great.

Alas, no need for slightly overweight neither old nor young english women then?

As all the kids watch "Australia / Britains Got a desperate want to be famous Talent" I guess they'll all be chopping off limbs as we speak.

Well done TYke

I am sure Tyke could have managed a talkie, the world loves a Yorkshire accent, the likes of Patrick Stewart and Michael Parkinson spring to mind.

There were some massive open casting sessions but it was not a big turn out / wrong "look" ,size,age.

 

Most people work full time and cannot get into this anyway.

 

You are warned that you may be needed at the drop of the hat - only a few of us can organise our lives like that!

 

Some extras needed are very specific.

 

Lot's of people do say yes but later on don't bother turning up.
