Kim Domingo recently shared a photo of television extras sleeping on-set. She posted a screenshot of Efren Mark Cinco’s Facebook post then shared a story on how she could relate to the Facebook post.
In the said post, Efren wrote “Sa likod ng CAMERA ito kami mga TALENTS or Kilala bilang Extra Artist. Basta may mapahingahan kami wala ng maraming arte. Mga talents pag out door scenes? Ito ang Tunay na Buhay Namin. REACT KAPWA TALENTS! #Relate #Relate #Revealed”
Kim revealed that she could actually relate to what the post said. She also shared that she used to star as a talent when she was in high school, the days where she only dreamed of being an actress. She disclosed that she had to endure things to achieve her dreams.
“Hindi ko makakalimutan nung mga panahon na nagtatalent pako highschool days ko. Mga panahong nangangarap pa lamang akong maging Artista 🙂 Inet,pagod,puyat,gutom halo halo na yung nararamdaman mo. Tas pag kakain ka kahit saan nalang basta may mapwestuhan ka. Ako nga naexperience ko sa kalsada naglagay lang kaming mga kapwa ko talent ng sapin para may maupuan kami para makakain kami ng kahit papano kumportable. Tapos after kumain mahaba habang oras nanaman aantayin mo kung kailan ka isasalang sa eksena. Yung hindi mo alam ano oras ka makakauwi. Antok na antok kana. Hahanap ka pwesto para umidlip man lang.”
Kim was already happy if she gets an opportunity to get paid with Php 500 for a 24-hour shoot. Back then, she would use what she earned to buy her own clothes just in case they would call her again. However, sometimes she would just give it to her parents to help provide for their family’s needs.
“Masaya nako noon sa 500 pesos na nauuwi kong tf from 7am to 8am kinabukasan bilang passer by (yung dadaan ka lang sa eksena ) pero aabutin ka ng halos 24 oras sa taping 😂 tapos yung tf ko na 500 kung minsan bibili ko ng damit or shoes para may magamit ako sa next taping pag tinawagan ako ulit 😛 at madalas naman bigay sa magulang pangdagdag pambili ng mga pangangailangan namin noon ng pamilya ko. Madaming rason kung bat nagtatalent ang isang tao. Yung iba gusto nila madiscover dahil pangarap nila mag artista yung iba gusto lang talaga kumita ng pera, at kung ano ano pang rason. Pero ako noon dalawang dahilan. Dahil gusto ko madiscover dahil pangarap kona talaga mag artista bata pa lamang ako , at sympre ang kumita ng pera para matulungan ang magulang at sarili.”
Now, Kim couldn’t express her happiness on achieving her goals and dreams. She also couldn’t help but remember the times she used to be an extra whenever she sees one. She encouraged extras and talents to never give up on their dreams. Kim hoped that they never run out of a will to fight.
“Ngayon masaya ko, dahil ang dalawang dahilan na yon ay natupad na at sobra sobra pa sa hinangad ko. Kaya everytime makakakita ako ng mga talent palagi ko naaalala na minsan naging katulad din nila ko 🙂Nakikita ko sarili ko sakanila noon. Kaya sa mga nagtatalent dyan kung gusto nyo ginagawa nyo ipagpatuloy nyo. Tyaga at tiis lang dadaloy din ang ginhawa. At wag mawawalan ng pag-asa kung para sa pangarap laban ! kung para kumita ng pera laban ! At wag makakalimot sa nasa itaas 🙏🏼 at kung saan ka nagmula 🙂 Hindi biro ang ginagawa nyo at wala kayong dapat ikahiya dyan 👍🏼 saludo ako sa inyo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😊😊😊.”
