The Night Stalker was filmed in Chicago. I didn't realize how awful it was as a kid.

Best weekend of my life. Charchian, Silvy, and I also appeared in scene on Chicago Fire. I was 200 yards away, but camera was clearly on me.

Agree

Steve, what do they pay you? I only ask because from what I saw when they filmed Chicago fire, 99% of the time they stand around and eat.


Extras get paid a flat daily rate.

It can often work out to be less than minimum wage.

It's usually $100 if you're there for about 12 hours. Once it creeps past 16 hours, you may get like $150. Involves a lot of standing around. Bring a book, or your Ipad, because you're gonna be in for a long day where you may "work" for like a few minutes.

Good job.

Will you be cast in a recurring role on the Chicago Fire spinoff?



Hopefully as a housefire. Or horsefire.

Steven ... enjoy your time on a tv show. Hopefully you can regale us with an interesting tale or two without jerking off all over it. Let us know if catering gives you a steak dinner.

I was happy that Frank shared this info.

We have met and settled our differences over a beer at a Sox game with some mediation provided by DS and Crest Jr.

Giving a shoutout to a network for having the good sense to hire you seems somewhat akin to having a brush with fame with yourself.

SAG minimum is $850 per day, if you have any dialogue, you should be getting paid at union rates.

You should deliver them personally. What a chance to see a star at his craft.

I saw Transformers filming a couple weeks ago. Helicopter spinning right in front of the Willis Jackson Tower.


They will be filming again this weekend on Jackson and Lasalle and the surrounding area
