How to Book a Job for Kid Actors

SCOTT DUPONT: Scott DuPont on behalf of Expert Village, welcome back to our next segment called booking the job. If you are lucky enough to have booked a job, here's a few tips that you should know when you go to set, okay? Now, you want to make sure you have--I have a little checklist, okay? And I just go through to make sure I have everything I need. The proper wardrobe, if I have sides or some kind of script, I want to make sure I'm familiar with that but I also bring that. I also want to bring a few other things and this would be definitely appropriate for you and your child, or if you're watching this, kids. Make sure you bring this when you go. Bring a book or a magazine because some days can often run 12 hours. I mean it's not uncommon especially for a film. Or if you want to bring your Gameboy or just something to keep you busy. Also if you want to bring--I always bring a bottled water or a snack. They usually will feed you on set but it's always good to have a snack just in case you're too far away from the craft service table or if they're shooting and shooting and shooting, and your blood sugar gets low. So anyway, just get all that stuff prepared and always get to the set early. I like to get there 15 minutes ahead of time, so I'm relaxed. I'm not rushed. I make a good impression when I get on set and I want you to do the same thing as well. And just be prepared, have fun and enjoy. It's going to be a great day on set. Congratulations. On behalf of Expert Village, we'll be right back.
