I did two days of extra work on this movie. Extra work is also known as atmosphere and bit parts. But those two terms are design to make it seem like you are doing more than standing about filling up space on a film set.
On the first day that I worked as an extra they shot at the SAN DIEGO ZOO. I can be seen in line waiting to get in. My back is to the camera and I am seen talking to a girl. The bonus is that I got to visit the world famous zoo for free later on that day after my scenes were done.
You can see a close up of my face on my second day during the talk show scenes. I am wearing glasses because I was in the zoo scenes and the casting director told me it would make me look like another person.
I enjoyed watching them shoot the talk show scenes because JOHN ASTIN was playing the villain of the film Prof. Gangreen and I really like watching him perform his role. JOHN ASTIN is best known for the TV show THE ADDAMS FAMILY.
Staring in the film was Rick Rockwell a comic best remembered by the nation as the millionaire of the TV show WHO WANTS TO MARRY AN MILLIONAIRE.
Many people find working as an extra boring. I myself enjoyed watching them shoot a movie.
