Bringing Your Own Wardrobe: Tips for Movie Extras

On behalf of expertvillage.com, my name is Paul Lewis and my name is Rodney Smith and we are here to talk to you about how to become an extra for TV, movies and commercials. Also we've spoke about actually them providing wardrobe to you from the wardrobe department but lets talk about when you are asked to bring a certain piece of wardrobe to the shoot. In all likelihood you will be asked to do that. Usually when you get booked fro the job, they will tell you what they expect to bring. Sometimes they will tell you one outfit and sometimes two. It's usually not something not too complicated. It is usually things that you have in your closet but they will ask for sometimes summer wear or sometimes ask for like coats like if they are going to be shooting outside, sometimes they will ask for gowns if there is a scene in a ballroom or something like that. Some times they will ask you to bring a couple of choices. I mean you wear something that they ask you to wear but then bring some other choices also. So be prepared to have a duffel bag to carry on the set to bring a few options but they will ask you to bring certain wardrobe choices on the set.
