Hi, Aaron Marcus. Great video like always! I've said yes and no to projects based on my skills. There's been projects I really wanted to work on as a writer, but I wasn't experienced in those areas, so I said no. I knew I wouldn't be able to do the jobs.

I haven't had to turn down a project based on my skills, but there are a lot of auditions I don't submit for based on the skills required. If I know there is no way I can fake it, I am not even going to audition. I know it will come back to bite me, if I get caught not knowing how to do something I said I could. Like dance and sing for example. Haha

Those are both great points. Just saying no to an audition is so smart. I have done that as well.
Thank you both for always sharing your thoughts and suggestions here

Aaron Marcus such a great attitude to have to say 'yes. It shows willingness and flexibility and I think that makes you the type of actor people want to work with. Ultimately being likeable probably gets us further in life than anything else. Thank goodness you said 'yes' to the stunt as it is so striking and memorable.

Thank you very much. I don't think I would have said yes to doing the stunt if I didn't have the stunt coordinator to give me a "crash course - no pun intended" Agreeing to falling 8 feet off a train platform could have been very risky and dangerous. Thank you for always sharing some amazing insights.
