In addition to the work necessary for a particular role, Actors must always be preparing for their next job, as the nature of this profession is typically one of inconsistent work. Should an Actor gain a level of success or notoriety, they may also need to be present for promotional events and media tours to market their film or other project. There are two types of “typical days” for an Actor: one where they are on set or actively preparing for a role they have booked and one when they are trying to secure future work. Depending on the day and success of an Actor, they may even do taped auditions in between breaks on set. Often, though, Actors can experience long stints between gigs while they continue to audition for roles.
