TV commercial extra

That's me - on a train from Sapporo to Hakodate on Sunday morning....
With my hair stylist Yasuko and my make up artist Kazue!
I had a one day job as an extra in a TV commercial that was filming at the Kanemori warehouses in Hakodate.
I'm not allowed to say what the commercial is for, or who the star is - or show pictures of me in costume, OR show pictures of the set. It may be on Tv in November. 
But I joined three others extras and a stand in, filming a street scene that will be used in commercial. It was a fun job, although we waited for a long, long time to  do anything and then had to stand and walk and gesture the same actions many times.
I got the job through a general call out to the foreign community in Sapporo: looking for middle aged or elderly foreigners. I had to send in photographs so they could judge my body and hair.
Did I get to meet the star? No! He? She? Walked about 5 meters away from me....my job was in the far background area!
