Would you rather jump out of a speeding car at 90 miles an hour than work underneath one? Would you rather dangle a boom mike than a fishing line? Do you dream of singing opera, dancing a ballet, or dashing off designs on a storyboard—or are you solely focused on getting out that company annual report?
Would you find it exciting to tag along on a film shoot in the Kalahari Desert in the middle of summer as a set medic—or would you rather tend scrapes and cuts in the local elementary school?
Let’s face it: Most people in the entertainment industry not only step to the beat of a different drummer—they may well be part of the band. They’re made for long hours, hard work, and all sorts of unusual talents. You might fi nd them jumping out of a plane, getting up at 3 a.m. to get a movie star a quart of Chunky Monkey ice cream, or building an entire miniature city in the middle of nowhere out of cardboard and paste. One thing’s for sure: They’ll never fit inside a normal 9-to-5 time slot.
