Stunt Performer
Stunt performers undertake dangerous acts in order to
entertain, including replacing film actors in dangerous
scenes, performing with the greatest visual impact and the
smallest safety risk.
Stunt performers may perform the following tasks:
- jump from high buildings
- drive cars and motorcycles at fast speeds and crash
vehicles
- enter flaming buildings or (with safety procedures) set
themselves on fire
- perform stunts on horses, boats, trucks and water skis
- check scripts in regard to safety aspects and provide
safety reports
- oversee performers on set and provide advice or help
with safety.
Stunt performers perform acts that look spectacular or
appear dangerous, using timing and props to minimise risks. It
takes experience and a lot of time to work out a logical
sequence.
