SF2: SAG Foundation Short Film Showcase

SAGIndie — Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Happy Friday!

Just wanted to let you know that the SAG Foundation in New York has launched SF2 (SAG Foundation Short Film). SF2 is a new showcase where filmmakers can screen their shorts and inspire SAG members to create their own projects produced under a SAG contract.

Best wishes,

If I want to produce a WEB SERIES starring SAG actors, do I need a SAG Contract?

SAGIndie — Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

The answer is: ABSOLUTELY.

We get this question, or questions like it, on a regular basis from ambitious new media producers looking to create the next “THE GUILD“.

The good news, we tell them, is that “YES”, there is a contract that covers New Media productions (content made for the Internet and/or mobile phones). The bad news, we continue, is that the New Media Contract doesn’t currently fall under the Low Budget Film Contracts that SAGIndie promotes. Thus, we must defer you to the New Media Department at the Screen Actors Guild for questions and concerns.

For more info, visit the New Media Contracts page at sag.org.

All the best,
