How about getting paid and having fun at the same time?
So many MCTV people join our agency to add a fun and interesting element to their lives. Working as a background extra or featured actor isn’t a full time job. It’s something you can do when you have flexible work or study arrangements.
You can spend your spare time on set on major TV and Film productions rubbing shoulders with the stars and seeing how the industry works. Then when the production finally makes it to air, you can show off your work to all your friends.
You do need to be responsible though. You must get to jobs on time and follow the instructions given to you on set. Often you will be asked to sign a non disclosure agreement that prevents you from sharing information about the shoot until after it makes it to the screen.
