During The Actor’s Strike Here Is A Really Great Job Actors Might Consider - https://youtu.be/_XymPKtl0so

Commercial modeling gives actors the opportunity to use their acting skills and show a wide variety of expressions and emotions in a believable way. The pay is great and it can be a lot of fun working with photographers on magazine, newspaper, brochure, billboard, posters and even on product package campaigns.

If you have ever done commercial print work, share your experiences so we can all learn from each other.

Detroit Redwings Get Sent To Prison and start a Tradition now in it's 69th year! by Michael Kane  •  last post Jul 31st

The amazing details surrounding the true story of the 1954 Detroit Redwings going behind the walls of the "Alcatraz of the North"-Marquette Branch Prison in Marquette, MI to play the prisoners in a hockey game. 

How two of the leaders of Detroit's infamous organized crime organization...the Purple Gang, Ray Bernstein and Harry Keywell, serving life in prison...got it all started with an off-hand comment.
How the game became a reality with the help of a legendary NCAA Hockey player and coach Leonard "Oakie" Brumm, Warden Emery, Redwings GM Jack Adams, Stroh’s brewery, and AAA Division Marquette Sentinels Hockey team. 
The unexpected direction of the game itself, the facts about the players and prisoners interaction, and the incredible event that occurred 6wks after the game. 
The tradition that was started as a result of this game. And, how I came to participate in this tradition personally. 

Casting Director Advice by Tammy Hunt  •  last post Jul 31st



Bernie Telsey, Telsey + Company (Hamilton, Mary Poppins Returns, Penny Dreadful, This Is Us, NCIS New Orleans, The Greatest Showman)

“One thing I would want every actor to know is if they don’t get that specific job they might be coming into the room for, there are so many other things about that experience that will be carried over. Always remember you’re not being rejected, you just didn’t get that job. In our office, we have this box. We come out of a session, and those audition sheets get circulated so everyone can see who might have done something that might be right for the thing that they’re casting.”

Sharon Bialy and Sherry Thomas of Bialy/Thomas & Associates (The Walking Dead, For The Walking Dead, The Handmaid’s Tale, Dead to Me, Better Call Saul, Barry, Gotham, Sneaky Pete, Breaking Bad)

SB: “We’re all in this because we love to tell stories, so what makes me remember an actor is an actor who went in to tell the story, not the actor who is in there because of the ego. A lot of times, actors are told, “This is your time in the room,” and that’s not my feeling. It’s not their time; it’s the time for the story. It’s their time to bring the story to life. It’s not all about them.”

ST: “We may have heard the scene 20 times and it doesn’t make sense, and then that one person comes in and they read the scene with you and you go, “I know what this scene is about.”

Netflix and AI by Geoff Hall  •  last post Jul 30th

Hi Community!

Here’s an interesting piece from the No Film School Clan.

I think the conclusion is rather too bleak, mainly because I believe that this is the time to take up the baton and run the race for independent films. 

We may see a divergence between studios/streamers and indie productions and platforms, if these giant entities continue with developing AI instead of human talent. Then there will be the need to distribute independent stories to people who want real human drama and refuse artificially generated productions.

I just wonder if these international corporations would be so pro AI, if we were talking about replacing Executives with this technology? 

Can t you see it? Executives striking for a fair wage? Forming a picket line with their Bentleys and Lamborghinis?  Now that would have me rolling in the aisles!

Alice Manica by Alice Manica  •  last post Jul 27th

Waivers for films during Actors strike. I know there are exemptions for film projects during the strike. Are actors permitted to sign on to low budget (under 3 Million) independent films as long as the filming begins after the strike is settled?  Must a formal waiver be applied for and granted by the Union?

AMPTP Responds to SAG-AFTRA's Claims, 'Dateline" Article by Matthew Gross  •  last post Jul 24th

SAG-AFTRA, as far as I can tell, failed to give us the full picture before calling this strike. If what is stated in the attached article is true, I'm unsure why our union called this strike. The truth seems murky.

Seeking Guidance during the Strike by Clive Cooper  •  last post Jul 24th

As someone with a passion for acting in micro-budget projects, I'm curious about how to navigate the space considering the SAG-AFTRA strike and its impact on the industry. I'm sure many members of this community are dealing with similar situations, so I'm reaching out for any advice or guidance you might have. How can we navigate and continue pursuing our creative endeavors in these smaller productions while being mindful of the strike and the needs/wishes of our fellow actors ? Any insights would mean the world to me as we all find a way forward during this time. Thank you for your help and best wishes to the striking Writers and Actors!
