Celebrate YOU
It takes all sorts to make a world – and it’s our job is to show this on screen. Extra work celebrates every single walk of life conceivable, so whatever your aesthetic, we’re proud to represent you!
Never Have The Same Day Twice
As an Extra, you’ll get to travel to different set locations all across the UK & Ireland and appear in everything from elaborate period dramas to commercials and dystopian sci-fi.
Enjoy Flexible Working Hours
Only take on work that suits your schedule by previewing all required shoot/non-performance dates first! That means you can submit yourself for the roles that accommodate you.
Subsidised Travel and Free Meals
With most productions contributing to travel costs and providing on-set catering, there’s no need to fret about logistics – just relax and enjoy your Extra experience on set!
No Training or Experience Needed
With absolutely no formal training required, Extra work welcomes all. Whether you’re a professional actor, a student seeking summer work or even a retiree looking for pocket money!
