Why Actors and Extras Should Train in Stunts

If you're an actor or background extra working in film or television, you're already on set—but are you prepared for action?

Today’s productions need performers who can move safely, respond convincingly, and handle basic stunts with confidence. That’s why more actors are turning to stunt training for actors to stand out and stay employed.

What Is Stunt Training for Actors?

Stunt training isn’t just for full-time stunt professionals. It includes essential screen skills like:

• Selling a punch or slap on camera

• Performing safe reactions and falls

• Working with spacing, angles, and timing

• Partnering safely in choreographed movement

These techniques help you deliver physical action that looks real and stays safeexactly what directors and stunt coordinators want.

Why Should Actors and Extras Learn Stunt Skills?

Whether you're chasing your first feature role or working consistently as an extra, here’s how screen action training helps you:

• Book more roles: Physical confidence expands your casting options

• Earn more trust: Coordinators recommend reliable performers

• Build your reel: Action clips boost your portfolio

• Avoid injury: Learn how to move, fall, and react without risk

“The difference between getting cast and getting called back often comes down to how well you handle movement on set.”
