    Should Background work be listed in a Resume?

    I know the answer is no, but my friend thinks I'm crazy for not including my "role" as "Guerilla Woman" in an upcoming massive DC film. I had 2 scenes and no lines (I do exchange a nod with one of the film's stars but that's about it). Should I include it, if...

    Hey, everyone. So I've been thinking about my next step in my acting career for a while, and I consider that to be attempting to work in two markets at once. You sometimes hear about bi-coastal actors who travel between NYC and LA (which seems crazy expensive...
