This episode is about getting excited about opportunities but then getting rejected or cancelled by the production at the last minute. About rushing out for last minute calls and getting COVID tests. About how 12 hours on a project translated to mere seconds or minutes in the finished product. About boarding your pet when you have no idea of your call time or how long you will be on set. About seeing yourself in the finished product and possibly ending up on the cutting room floor and the disappointment that brings. About how to track your jobs so that you can easily find yourself when the show or film airs; it's not always easy if you don't take good notes. About using background opportunities to explore parts of yourself you've kept hidden away for years. And finally, there's a few tidbits about IMDB and recording your work so that the whole world can see what you've been in.Included are stories that exemplify these ideas and illustrate how they've impacted me personally and shaped how I think about doing background work.If you like this podcast, please provide a rating on whatever platform you're listening on and tell your friends.If you like what you heard and want to see more, here are my social media links:Facebookhttp://www.facebook.com/d.j.stavropoulosInstagramhttp://www.instagram.com/d.j.stavropoulosLinkedInhttp://www.Linkedin.com/in/djstavropoulosPinteresthttp://www.Pinterest.com/djstavropoulosTwitterhttp://www.Twitter.com/djstavropoulosYouTubehttp://www.youtube.com/channel/UC67CJvv-jrWtPbTQWhu79Qg?view_as=subscriberIMDBhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm12147879/--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thebackgroundscoop/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thebackgroundscoop/support
