Background acting casting
The way into film and television. No experience required.
Background work means appearing on screen in a film, a series, a commercial or a music video, with no lines to perform. A silhouette is a noticed piece of background work, where your face or a specific action stands out. These are often the first steps in the trade, and an excellent way to understand a set.
