Ok, when I was at a recent audition, I realized that one girl had said she had 4 other auditions that week.

I get that the point is your suppossed to audition for everything that is right for you.

But, what if that girl booked all 4 things. Then what do you do? Do you choose what you want out of the 4 or do you do all 4.

It would dumb to after you have book a role to give it up.

How are actors doing two movies in the same year?

Do the people that film work around your schedule, if they really like you?

If they do work around your schedule, then i guess my questions are answered but if they dont the question is still there.

So I guess the question is "Do directors, or whoever takes manages this work around your schedule of filming different things?"

Because i see people who are intv shows make a movie in the same year or people make two movies in the span of 2 years.

Please answer this question, my brain will explode.

Before people start hating on my grammar, the reason why i have bad grammar is becuase when ever i have a quesstion i get so excited and just type so fast and click POST NOW!

1) If they are all filming at the same time, you have to choose. I have had to turn projects down a couple times. But if they are not filming on the same days, do them all! I have done more then one projects in one month many times.

2) Sometimes you have to turn down a role to take another.

3) There are twelve months in a year, VERY few movies film for twelve months. Many smaller movies film in one.

4) Sometimes they will work with you... but there are so many factors that usually they can not. They will work around big stars.

5) Usually TV stars that do movies do them during hiatus, when they have a couple months off from the show.

What if one project finishes filming the same week another project starts filming.

Do you think they will give you a break?

Also whats the usual time frame of filming?

Just filming not editing or getting the cast. Just filming.
