Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Paid movie extra


No, really.  I will be part of a crowd scene for the "Warrior" now shooting in Pittsburgh.

I have done extra work before --in Pittsburgh-- and it's fun.  Long day, but fun.

imdb.com has lists of movies 'in production, but I found this one through craigslist "ETC" column.

I understand the long setup time between filming plus the constant retakes to get the shot right can be pretty grueling.

The couple that bought our old trailer were active extras in many films. They enjoyed it.

Good luck with it.

Just like RV'ing, the answer is "it depends."

I worked 16 hours in the rain on a vampire movie in Pittsburgh.  At night.  Ugh.
I worked 12 straight on the Dawn of the Dead sequel, but it was relaxing and not wet.
Weird because of the makeup and costumes, but fun.
I was hired, and paid, for 2 days' extra work on "Mysteries of PGH," but only worked 10 hours.

12 hours is considered a regular working day and considering how many unpaid hours I have logged as a sub-teacher and tutor, this isn't bad. You know what you're in for.

4 days extra work will pay all my vehicles' insurance for a year.
