WHAT IS AN EXTRA (Background Artist) IN A MOVIE OR TV COMMERCIAL
EXTRAS (background artist) are an essential element of any Film project.
Extras are most often used to "fill out scenes That require a large crowd such as a football game or parade / in the background at scenes filmed at Restaurants ,Hospitals etc.
Extras do not have a speaking role and have little or no interaction with the stars of the Film.

WHAT IS A FEATURED Background Artist IN A MOVIE OR TV COMMERCIAL
A FEATURED EXTRA They are in focus
​you can see them clearly, but they still don't have any lines.
As soon as you speak ,the pays scale goes up, and you're not an extra anymore.
An Background Artist gig is never a speaking role.
A role that requires one or two lines and minimal onscreen time is called a "CAMEO"
