Colin- Agreed. If you are a newbie in the industry and have absolutely no training, credits, etc. Then this is not a viable solution for you. This post is more for those who are SAG-E/Non-Union and are ready to be a union member. Sam- It's totally confusing. If you are SAG-E, you will still be eligible to join the Union. The difference will be monetary. If you join SAG now (before the merger) you will pay $2,300. If you join SAG after the merger, it will be $3,000 and you will automatically become AFTRA as well. If you join AFTRA now (before the merger) then you will pay $1,600 and once the merger goes through, you will automatically become SAG & AFTRA.

Opening Night!

There is nothing quite like Opening Night. For months, you prep and memorize and study and try to incarnate a character so that you can feel proud when it's time for curtain call. Last weekend (sorry for the delay in... Continue reading

The Audition that Booked (Emma Stone - Easy A & Lea Michele - Glee)

I heart Emma Stone. She has such a naturally funny comedic cadence and her audition for the role of Olive Pendergast in "Easy A" is no exception. It's easy to see why she booked this part. She owns it, completely... Continue reading
