How to Star in a Music Video

It’s not difficult to get casted as an extra in a music video featuring mainstream artists like Snoop Dogg, Linkin Park, and the like। Here are a few easy steps to get you behind the scenes of a music video and earning extra spending cash.
Join a casting service and provide your best looking photo, which will be submitted to agents. Sometimes a comp card or headshot is requested.
Step2
Provide the agency with a detailed description of yourself including your height, weight and measurements. Also, include any piercings or tattoos you may have along with certain "looks" you can accomplish. For example, if you can pull of a skater style, punk rocker, goth, etc, let the agency know.
Step3
Give the agency notice of your availability so they can get a hold of you if you’re needed for extra/background work. This can sometimes be done on the agency's website.
Step4
Prepare to get called to work on your first music video, television show or movie. Sometimes, the shoots are located in remote places or in hard to find neighborhoods so leave your home early and prepare for the unexpected including traffic, road blocks, etc.
