it depends on the set, if the set is quiet and calm you can sometimes get on, if the set has tight security, most likely you won't, I never really go on sets much unless I'm booked on them, I've only done it once I think, and that was on Bruce Almighty, but I knew a few of the crew members on set and they told me to come back, so I did, the only problem was trying to get past security and get past the woman who had the list of everyone that was supposed to be there (not including me) she was upset with me for getting on the lot, but I don't care. So yea, usually you have to have someone book you on the set, cuz productions usually don't accept people who just walk on

cool Norway! My ancestors are from there... anyway, an extra is just a person in the background, it's not as big of a deal as actually having a speaking role. It's very easy work to get into, but I'm not sure how common it is in Norway, when you're old enough you should come to America and see the opportunities you have out here

You both have the same avatar! For a second I thought JT was talking to herself.
I know from experience that it's hard to get work as an extra unless you know somebody. JT that is gracious of you to offer her help.
