Annie Klein: I do everyone who doesnt speak onscreen, says the Victoria-based casting director for background performers, once commonly referred to as extras. , according to Times Colonist. A lot of people think its going to be fun, fun, fun, but in reality its wait, wait, wait, laughs Klein, who began her industry career as location manager on the Rosanna Arquette thriller Poison here 15 years ago before moving into casting. Annie Klein loves a man in uniform preferably dozens if she can get them. She isnt just into cops, military commanders and firefighters, however. Klein is also big on bikers, dog-walkers, diners, ballplayers, seniors, partygoers, high schoolers, runners, shoppers and jurors whatever it takes to furnish a movie or TV show with background characters required to unobtrusively complete a directors vision. Being one can be fulfilling, but its not as glamorous as it might sound, she cautions.
