Ebert recently talked to 51ÁÔÆæ News about what it\u2019s like to make a living in Hollywood.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How and when did you decide to become an actor? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Believe it or not, it was \u201cSaved by the Bell.\u201d I loved that show. During the commercial breaks, I would recite the lines and act it out as close as I could to what they just did or put my own spin on it. It was so much fun, and when I reached high school, I just thought \u201cWhy not?\u201d I could do this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s your role on the \u201cModern Family\u201d episode?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t talk too much about it because you sign a non-disclosure agreement about the plot, but I play an aggressive soccer mom \u00ad\u2013 which is a bit different from my Jane the Virgin soccer mom and my Midwestern soccer mom from Milwaukee. I got to let an inner part of my Brittani Ebert aggression come out. It was fun to play, to make that character come to life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you get the role on Modern Family?<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20711\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20711\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2015\/09\/brittaniebert_j2-2kgsv84.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-20711\" src=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2015\/09\/brittaniebert_j2-2kgsv84.jpg\" alt=\"  Brittani Ebert has been building a career in Hollywood over the past eight years.

(Photo courtesy Brittani Ebert)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s part of my job as a an actor to keep in touch with casting directors, producers, the creative types and the decision makers in the industry When this role came up, they had a short list \u2013 maybe a half-dozen people they thought could do the job. I had the audition on Monday, got a callback on Wednesday and went in on Thursday to do it again for the director and the executive producer, who is a co-writer on the show \u2013 no pressure there (laughing). When I found out I got the role, on Friday, it was super-exciting. The whole not-knowing is exhausting. I was ready for a nap.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was the shoot like?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We were the first shoot on Tuesday (Aug. 11), and that can make you nervous, but it also sets the tone for the day. My goal was to surprise and delight the director and not to be caught up in nerves. I got great reviews from the creator of the show, the executive producer and even Ed O\u2019Neill (the show\u2019s star). Man, it was just really fun.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What was your experience like on \u201cJane the Virgin\u201d last spring? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was really a guest-star size role opposite Gina Rodriguez who plays Jane. Gina is registering for gifts at Target and she\u2019s totally lost \u2026 doesn\u2019t know what to register for. I overhear and start giving advice. I play this talkative gal \u2013 which is pretty much how I am.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is the role with General Hospital a recurring role? <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, I play Debbie the waitress. I started in 2010, and I\u2019m just taping my 35<sup>th<\/sup> episode on Sept. 22 (set to air around Oct. 22). In my real life, my survival job is as a waitress\/bartender so I must be pretty good at the role.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it as hard to make it in Hollywood as they say?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Oh absolutely, but like a lot of things, it\u2019s mind over matter. The more you learn about the business, though, the easier it becomes. Obviously, it takes luck, but you also have to have perseverance and talent as well. It\u2019s not a linear career like others \u2026 it\u2019s up and down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How did your experiences at 51ÁÔÆæ help you?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was in the B.A. program, but we had a number of classes with faculty members from the PTTP (Professional Theatre Training Program, then based at 51ÁÔÆæ). I also enjoyed being on the swim team. One of the years I was there, the women\u2019s team placed first in the Midwest Conference. We also had a practicum class where you learned set construction, set painting and all sorts of different crafts, and that\u2019s helped me in Chicago and L.A. One of my professors at 51ÁÔÆæ also gave me the good advice to start out in Chicago rather than New York or Hollywood. It\u2019s a good theater market, but smaller.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s next?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For now, I\u2019m planning to keep my survival job. Of course, one of these guest roles could turn into a recurring role \u2013 I may become Jane\u2019s friend or the daughter may have more soccer games involving the aggressive soccer mom. If that happens, I can always quit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brittani Ebert, a graduate of 51ÁÔÆæ\u2019s theater program, has a co-starring role in the Sept. 30 episode of
