Have you worked with union actors before? Do you know how far in advance you need to file SAG-AFTRA paperwork? Do you know the difference between the SAG-AFTRA contracts, and what opportunities exist within each? These are a lot of the questions filmmakers have when faced with the decision to go SAG-AFTRA on their project.   

At a glance, working with SAG_AFTRA might seem like an overwhelming element to add to your film. However, it isn't as complicated as it seems, and it might actually make your set run more smoothly. Learn about critical factors like the diversity incentive, working with minor actors, and other details that will make you equipped to be a better and more experienced filmmaker. 

Yolanda Asher, Carrie Anne Hunt and Tenaya Cleveland of the SAG-AFTRA Atlanta Indie Outreach Committee will answer these questions and more. If you have a particular question about working with union actors, post it on the event page to be sure it's covered in the meeting. See everyone at Java Vino!
