Well, if you are given a chance, why not? I know it is everybody dream to appear in movies. If given a chance, I would like to be an actress in an action, suspense or flick movies. Besides I heard that to be an actor or actresses is highly compensated.
How about you, if you are given a chance would you like to appear in a movies? What kind of movies and character you like to portray? Do you like to be the lead star, extras or just a plain background? thanks

I love to appear on movies, Neelia. Sometimes it's just so awesome to see characters in movies and I will be so interested and sometimes imagine being the hero or something. Sometimes I even visualize myself running and doing all the stunts too. LOL. If given a chance, I'd like to star in a role whereby I can just do all those stunts and not get hurt.

Nah, I would not like to work in a movie. The reason is simple, I don't look good neither I can perform even on stage, so if people are going to see me in a movie then people would start hating me even if they don't know me.
so, thanks but no thanks to the producers or directors who want me in a movie! LOL!

Ah, do you really think that I can act. You must watch me at home. I try to make people laught but I end up making them upset and angry on me. Ah, I am little scared of being an actor in my life.
One thing I am good in my life is that I can tell a lie without any problem!

hi sanuanu,
Lol..but if you have talent it could be develop with constant practices and attending grooming strategy you would probably look good like the other celebrity they enter program to undergo enhancement procedures so that they would look good both in cam and in real life, so other stars are not really original but becomes beautiful due to modern cosmetology and other surgical procedures. Since, you like it simple you could be a star on your own way being a star in your dream or even in your family is even better without being compensated and away from intrigues..thanks

I was once in the stands at a movie shot around the area called Varsity Blue - if you see some of the game scenes in the crowd - well, I'm part of that crowd! So is my mom and a few of her friends!
Now, I wasn't in the filming of it, but I was at a con that was held at the hotel when they were filming the Elvis movie (not with Elvis, but about Elvis) Heartbreak Hotel. The catering truck offered me some food - but I took a pass - because mostly of my food allergies. I did almost run into the actor playing Elvis - I'm sure he was wondering who the chick in the black cape was and why she was wandering around his set (mind you, his "set" was a street in downtown Austin TEXAS!)

I'm just one of many of the blue shirted "fans" of the movie - I doubt you could see me - a co-worker went to see the movie - she was a big fan of Dawson Creek, the star was the star in the movie - and she couldn't see me (mind you, she was probably looking at the action on the field.)

Yup, nelia. I want a simple life that I can move freely, buy what I can, eat good daily and no need to be glamorous.
I want to live like that (simple life)because it is comfortable for me. What matter most is having a good income, a happy family and buy what is important that's it...
I don't like to be more glamorous and live like no ends of happiness because that is really makes life harder and at the end sufferings may come...I don't like that. Have a nice day!!!

Hi Neel,
It will be an honor--my pleasure to appear in a movie. i know i can act, i can sing and even dance. so no problem. i just need o good material and when given the chance can prove my place in show business. i know i can handle different types of personalities in the business and the pressure around. but since it's not given to me, i am happy with my life. even if am not an actress, i can still sing, dance act anytime and entertain my family and friends! but i was exposed on singing contest and concerts too via radio and tv.

I was given a chance...I was a freelance talent on two major networks here in the Philippines way back in 2002, it was my first part time job. I would really love to go back but college life is eating my time. I didn't dream to be a lead star, any roles would do just as long as I make people happy. It's really worth it, the whole experience

I think it would be kind of cool. I may be a little nervous about it though, but it would be pretty cool to see yourself in a movie somewhere and to tell people you were in one. I would probably be worried about how I look and stuff though. But it would be a cool experience and something a lot of people don't get to do in a life time.

hi thedaddym,
yeah, definitely it is a lot of fun and you really never know you have the talents and skill until you try so better join any audition and by luck you could be one of the famous actor in the future. Their is no bad in taking chances and if given the opportunity just accept it as an added exposure.

Hi, neelianoscet. Yes, I would love to appear in an movie. I would like to be in an suspense movie. I have always been quite fascinated with an horror movie.. I would like to be in an horror movie, where I am not the one killed. Maybe one that battles the demon. I would like to have magical special powers that will attack the demon and send it back to Hades. I also would like to be in a thriller movie where I am an character that is just passing by without playing a part in the movie. I think that it would be fun to be in a movie of our own choice.

hi cream,
That very nice as being the leading character is a good choice than being a victim since if you are the one being killed then it is like a movies which not going to be proud since you lost it like a games that does not win. So being the heroes or one of the survivor is a nice choice. yeah, nothing could pressure anyone if you could only choice the kind of character you like since you could act more naturally if you like the role you like to play. thanks.

I worked as an extra on two different TV series, that is my claim to fame!
It was very poor money being an extra and you have to be there all day, just sitting and waiting, but it was interesting watching how they do the filming of the scenes. I worked very briefly alongside some of Australia's well known actors and many unknown ones.
One unknown actor at the time that I was talking to at lunch while I was working on one of them, ended up going onto bigger things after being "discovered" in this particular TV series which was called "Roar".
His name was Heath Ledger, you may know of him as he went on to make some Australian films, but then went on to be huge in Hollywood before dying over there a couple of years ago.

hi rawbill,
wow, that very nice amazing experience you get there being typecast as one of the extras in a film. That surely a lot of fun and the waiting is nothing as you get to see entirely those big stars which one usually see on the big screen but you itself have face them. yeah, i know him and that he is such an excellent actors though his entire career is cut off by his early demise.

That would be great though I doubt I will ever play a lead role and be compensated highly for it. Actors study for years to learn about and perfect their craft, then they struggle to be given a chance to gain some experience. I have acted in several amateur plays usually with the lead role or, as in the last one, one of the lead roles.
If I could get a part in a major movie I would not care what it was so long as I was recognisable and I could say..."see, that's me!"

hi mstickle,
Yup, and it is a great experience being one of the star in a movies and it is a lot of fun meeting other co-star especially those famous actor and actresses then seeing your name in the screen, billboard and be included in the promotional tour is an added boost then you gain too a lot of admirer which is very fun to do and earning at the same time:)

I would have to be a character actress or one in a mob scene. I'd probably be the one who gets run over by the mob. No director in his right mind would hire a 75 year old leading lady.

hi bellis,
Well, that still a part of the scenes in a movies then it is still an exposure just imagine the you are still being paid for an extras which also a good sources of earning, when an old lady still is being hired to play other scenes it only mean being older should not be taken as a disadvantage but rather a need since not only the young could act but also the old.

hi sunnew,
That would be a good behavior you have both offline and online you like to be a hero which is a very rare find now days unlike those who portray roles as a heroes in movies they are just faking it and in real life they could not risk their life defending other as much as possible even in real life, Yup, with pleasing personality it is the number attraction plusses the talents and skills it would be an asset to have many fans follower of your movies. thanks.

Hiya neelianoscet,
Would´nt mind being an Film extra of some sort but being able to stand out just a little bit. That´s my ego going for a walk again. Would not fancy being the Film Star as now that would not be so easy for me. But being an Extra yes. Yes I would like that a lot. When´s the Film start? Just kidding gal.
Take care now all.
