Since writing this post, SAG and AFTRA have merged into SAG-AFTRA. It’s one union…
Q: [Our son] has been doing some work as an extra and we have been asked if we are members of SAG of AFTRA. Do you recommend one and do you need to be a member of both to be able to work on a SAG project or AFTRA?
A: To simplify as best I can: if a production is signed under a union agreement, you need to be part of the union to work on that production.
Set a new goal. Choose an action you can take that you are in control of, and can work towards…big or small. And then begin.
