Scams...
Tue, 25 June 2002, 07:04 pmThis may sound like I'm paranoid. It may have happened before.
I found out about this audition for a feature film. It was reported on in a local rag, giving a phone number to call for more information about getting a part. I rang the number, the bloke that's directing the film said that I had to send a letter to a certain address requesting a copy of the script and my documenting previous experience... as well as $20 for the cost of the script.
It's not a nice thought that in today's society that we are sometimes a little hasty in our judgements, but the people I have spoken to about this have given me a piece of their mind... and they are, needless to say, a little sceptic. I'd prefer to give the benefit of the doubt, though...
