As a follow-up to this now-deleted post about wanting to become an extra on some kind of video production, I’ll now briefly record the fact that I did, just last week, procure work as an extra. Come June or so, I’ll be in a show on TLC. I was cast as the older brother, and my part was pretty substantial (although it was just a short skit). I’m still not sure if I’m able to act, but I tried. I’m topless in the scene, and wearing white and multi-blue striped shorts. It was a great experience. Alas, the production company was from England. So I won’t be making a career out of not making it in the industry. That was the extent of my acting prospects. In fact, my stint in Seattle has come to an end. In a couple weeks I’ll be employed elsewhere, in mental health. Back in California. So long Seattle. It was an interesting two months. But I’ll be taking my can of bungees.
