Working on The Nanny Diaries tomorrow, and apparently doing some stand-in work, although I don't know for who.

Go you! Especially since I think you get a pay bump for stand in stuff.

Having never done stand-in work before, is there anything I need to know? It seems obvious, but I like to be prepared.

I've never actually done any stand-in work. All I know is the following

1) You need to be prepared to walk the blocking of the scene.

2) They do the lighting and camera angles off of you so you'll be on set a LOT

3) You'll have a copy of the script for the scene so you'll know what's going on, and you should have a pencil to make blocking notes if you need to

4) They might dress you like the principle

5) You get some sort of pay bump.

Which is probably all stuff you already knew

3. was the only thing I didn't know (having a copy of the scene). That's a relief. I hate not knowing what's going on.
