Film, Freelance & Advisory Work
Home
Sally Pointer & Gareth Riseborough have many years experience as extras on
historical film productions. As well as providing experienced, well equipped
extras, we are also able to offer help with research and specialist resources.

Whether you need accurately costumed extras from the Iron Age to the late Medieval
periods, or perhaps an expert in early cosmetics or historic cooking to provide a 'talking
head' or 'expert' appearance; we can help. You might be surprised at how reasonable our
rates are too.  We generally cost the same as any other freelance specialist but come with
a whole host of extra skills and abilities that we will use to help realise your vision for your
production.

We can also provide lectures, talks, articles and day schools on any of our specialist
subjects. Get in touch and we can discuss your needs, but be warned, we have a busy
diary and the earlier you book us the better the chance of getting everything you need.


Selected Appearances:
In recent years we have appeared in, amongst others, the TV series: 'Warrior Women', 'Bloody Towers', 'Time
Team', also Radio appearances on 'Woman's Hour'
