PAY RATE: The rate of pay for a non-union background performer is $14.00 per hour, which is the Provincial minimum wage. There is an 8-hour minimum guarantee on the show so in the (unlikely!) event a performer only works for 4hrs they are paid $112.

.

The premise of the show is that a virus has decimated humankind leaving only two million people alive and without sight. The survivors and their descendants must find new ways to interact, build, hunt and survive. Jason Momoa stars as the father of twins who are born two hundred years later with the mythical ability to see. As they grow to adulthood he must protect them against a threatened Queen and other tribes who view sight as witchcraft and heresy punishable by death.

Local filming will take place just south of St. Thomas on Sunset Drive and will be filmed outdoors Monday – Friday, from February until June or July.

Being an extra is fun if you are patient, prepared and have a flexible schedule. A given day may easily last from 10-15 hours, depending on the location of the shoot.
