@FrankCannon it's evil. Why the fuck should people not get paid a fair wage for their work? The studio execs are earning millions per year for doing fuck all
@killingfloorman She was magnificent,takes no crap.
@killingfloorman Parasites and it's right through the industry.There's one agency here,supplies extras for all the big projects.....they've pretty much got a monopoly here as they provide extras on the cheap.They take advantage of people wanting to be on screen,that think it's a gateway to being "spotted".They're paid way below minimum wage.Background on Line of Duty for example will get maybe £70 for a 12+ hour day.And treated like shite to boot.
@FrankCannon exploitation pisses me off.
@killingfloorman Same here.A lot of extras here are getting Equity involved in pay and conditions here,with the help of some actors......but they get blackballed as soon as the agency sees they're involved in it.
@killingfloorman They're taking the piss.I know quite a few extras and they make decent bank if they get a good run on a gig.This is cutting their throats.
