 Movie Extra 101

I'm so happy I took the Movie Extra 101 class. Not only did I learn how to increase my chances of being in more films, I also learned what to expect and what to do and not do while on the set. Thanks so much, Gary, for taking the time out to answer all of our questions since we are now "Hollywood South" and have MANY opportunities to come! —Melissa Mamelli, Stand-in, Big Momma's House 2

Thanks so much for the experience of the Movie Extra 101 class. Starting Friday I am in Failure to Launch as an extra. See ya at the movies! —Jennifer Valley

Are you interested in being in the movies? Then, this class is for you. You'll learn not only how to get in, but how to behave once you are cast. Plus, Gary Smith, knows almost every contact in the business and is glad to share them with you. —Karen M. Young

REALLY enjoyed your class. I came to class with three specific questions; you answered those three questions in the first 20 minutes of the first class. WOW!!!!! —Drama Mamma Mia (Mary Burns), Actor/Comedian

I must say Gary has done it again; this is the second class of yours that I have taken. In a nutshell, if it is publishing, acting, or both that anyone wishes to pursue, they are selling themselves short by not enrolling in any class that you offer. I will be a lifetime student. Movie Extra 101 has got me rocking and rolling in the right direction! Thanks Gary! —Laura Zimmerman Wear

Movie Extra 101 is a great course for anyone looking to become an extra or looking to start off small in the film industry. The course gives very informative, step-by-step information about becoming an extra, some really great stories of personal experiences as an extra from the instructor, as well as the latest info about what is going on around town. —Ashley Michelle Love

Entertaining and informative! Mr. Gary Smith has developed a complete Movie Extra A–Z course presented in two lectures. Movie Extra 101 and the companion text allow Mr. Smith to share his enthusiasm for the growing movie industry in Louisiana. You will arrive with questions about your future as a movie extra and Mr. Smith's well thought-out lectures and handouts prepare you for that, and so much more. —Mittie Hochstedler

Really enjoyed the class! Both the book and the class were very informative and an easy introduction into the business. —Charlie Howard
