My acting debut as an extra in the diner scene was thrilling. Being with the actors as they worked and re-worked each scene was an edifying and intense experience. “Eating” the same french fry over and over and over and over was relatively easy as I kept telling myself “Don’t eat the fries, they’re props!” Then Howard, the director, said “Lets do Scott’s close up.” Oh crap, I wanted to disappear. No one said anything about a CLOSE UP! I managed to do some deep breathing exercises that calmed me long enough to sit thru the quick shots. The professionalism of the cast and crew kept me relaxed and focused. To the crew....thank you for letting me be part of the fun and allowing me to realize my 1/2 second of fame, it was a privilege.
