Beth: Live-Blogging CdA Movie

I'm live blogging at the movie set. Funny, right? But true. Rich Flores, a KNIFVES member, has been filming his short "Shining Cuckoo" film these last few days. I volunteered to play an extra in the coffee shop scene. So here I am. ... Right now, they're discussing when to film what when. They want a "master," and get the extras out of here faster, if possible.... No facial expressions from the people on the right side of the room... they won't even be there in Scene 11... More "master" discussion. ... "Are they willing to stay?" They're willing to stay. ... Where are the cops? (actually, there's one true one and one fake one, but they're both wearing local county sheriff outfits... oops, I mean uniforms... very authentic....)/Beth Bollinger, Accidental Rabbit Trails. More here.

Question: Have you ever been an extra in a movie? Tell us about it.
