Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about SAG’s Low Budget Film Agreements But Were Afraid to Ask
A Walk Through the Theatrical Contracts Process
Join us for a theatrical contracts workshop for producers and others interested in finding out how to take the mystery out of working with Screen Actors Guild. In this workshop, we will go step-by-step through contract summaries for all the Low Budget Film Agreements (including the Student and Short Film) as well as the New Media Agreement. We will answer producer’s questions about what it takes to have a successful SAG relationship so you can use the area's most trained professional actors to improve the performances you send to the screen. It's not as hard as you think. Come find out.
