I have worked as a background actor and a VFX artist. As an actor, there is a lot of down time and you get to hang out in holding and talk with your friends and eat the food that is provided. You get haircuts and free meals. If you get hired for eight hour, you get paid for eight hours, even if you quit early. As a VFX artist, you sit in a dark cold room by yourself at a computer. You cannot talk to anyone, because they are busy working, The only breaks you get are the legally prescribed work breaks and your computer monitors your activity. You work constantly for the entire 12 or 16 hours. Nobody buys you food, nobody gives you a place to eat. Nobody talks to you, except your supervisor asking about your progress.
