I’ve been in three feature films, and several short films. I’ve did amateur acting classes in college too.
Here’s a few trailers for films I’ve had small roles in. I play a student, a Nazi, and a zombie in these films. :eek:

I don't know how to get cast in anything when it comes to larger roles, though. I've only found jobs for extras. It seems like a chore finding anbody that will give you that big break you may be seeking. :(
Sounds cool. I was an extra in a web series called Judas Goat, sitting in a bar. I once paid £70 or so to be an extra in something else, and all I got was a split second appearance in a tunnel with my sister, because I hardly ever go to film shoots on my own. Well, mostly my legs were seen.
I got five days work on the DC Universe series Swamp Thing, two days work on the as yet unreleased Netflix series Outer Banks, and a lot of work, maybe 15 days total work on the Hulu series Reprisal. Reprisal’s 10 episode season is due to drop on December 6 of this year.
All as an extra, but in different roles in most of them, except for Reprisal, where I was pretty much typecast as a member of the Banished Brawlers gang, although I preferred to think of us as a club.
In my hometown, I played a zombie in a film called Dead Moon Rising. Our zombies’ peculiar weakness was that they were terrified to cross over water of any depth.
Real answer: i was a professional extra for several years in the early part of the century. The one thing I can think of that you can easily see me in was Starsky and Hutch movie. I’m right behind the police chief when he accidentally gets shot at the car auction scene.
A couple of musicals at the all-girls’ high school. The needed boys for male roles and recruited from the Catholic boys’ schools in the area. It was fun.
I’ve acted in school (starting as a monkey in our kindergarten’s Caps for Sale) and in church shows and summer camp. Nothing since high school, though.
I acted on stage in community theatre productions throughout my 20s, and thought I could transition that onto on-camera stuff, but the first couple of times I did that I realised just how awful I was, and never had those aspirations again. The most I’ve done since is a background extra on short films.
