There is also a facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/SeeYouOnSetSTRAPLINEThis book is part history, part stories from the Green Room, part tutorial, part info pack, part life on set, part fact, part fabrication; in truth this book has almost as many parts as ‘extras’ have alternative names. We are the crowd, we are the moving scenery, the walking (silently talking) props, that add a little colour and life, into what might otherwise look like a very dull screen moment.
