Do you offer paid work?

All the jobs we offer are paid - and the amount paid varies depending on your role and the production. When you receive an availability request we will let you know the payment offered. For example, a background extra may expect to be paid around €80-100 euros per day, however a featured role may earn more than €120 per day! Please note that in most films 10% tax is deducted at source and paid on your behalf by the production. We suggest you start as an extra, unless you have examples of acting to a higher standard. Either way, it’s always possible to work upwards in pretty big projects!

When do I receive payment for my work?

All companies work differently however it is standard practice that production will issue payment within 30 days of the last production shoot day, but sometimes this can take longer in the event of a big production company, where possibly thousands of other background artistes would be receiving payment after the shoot. In any case, you can always send an email if you are experiencing any difficulty with payment.
