It's hard for us actors to turn down auditions/jobs. Out of nearly 1,300 bookings I have only turned down around 6.

Sometimes it is essential that we say no. Watch the video and learn why I turned down a great booking.

If you turned one down, share your experiences with others so we can all learn from each other.

Thank you so much for sharing, Aaron Marcus . I recently turned down a film ( I am a Composer) because of similar reasons and every single thing you are saying resonates with me 100%.

Thank you so much for sharing Elena. Many years ago I was offered a TV political spot. I was the "man on the street" who was talking about how much he liked and agreed with the person running for Congress. I read the copy in the spot and was so offended by some of the things I had to say, that I simply said that I wasn't available.

As important as work is for me, my life, and integrity is much more important. I never would have forgiven myself if I used my talents to help someone who was nasty and mean spirited and dangerous win his election.

Thank you again for sharing.
