IN MY OPINION;
WILLIAM REYNOLDS;

KEEPING YOUR CHIN UP.

Well that is a lot easier said than done. If you are an actor, you have had this happen to you. You get booked on a film, your first job ever. Call time is at 6;30 AM in some
god forsaken place 40 miles from where you live. But you're still excited right? Yes you are. So you get there a little early after getting up at 3: AM, getting ready and then
driving forever. You get there, and you with a lot of others wait for several hours before they begin to film. Gossip here, gossip there. complaining on why so early etc.
Does the production company care. No they don't. They would have liked to have begun on time as well, but they had camera issues or whatever. And believe me, it can get worse.
You go through this for a year or two, and then BOOM, you get a principal role. SPEAKING. You are informed to be on the set tomorrow morning at some horrid hour, to go through
wardrobe etc. But, you have your own dressing room.
Mine was in the back of a U-Haul, with portable hangers, that I had to share with another actor. And of course there was no bathroom and we are in a rural area, way away from
civilization. Yep! Guess where we had to go?
So, to reiterate, keeping your chin up is not always as easy as it sounds.
