Agent Info

• Never sign with an agent that will make you pay up-front cost. These agents are out there to scam you and should be reported to SAG/AFTRA.
• A true SAG franchised agent will receive 10% of what you make, and nothing more.
• If you are new to the bussiness or new to an area, e-mail: question@takeoneacting.com to receive a list of SAG/AFTRA franchised agents in your area.
• Meet with an agent before you sign a contract. Make sure that there are no alterations to the contract. It should be a regular SAG contract.
• If an agency wants you to sign an agreement as opposed to a contract, that is ok. The difference betweent the two is: a contract is legaly binding the actor with the agency on a year by year terms. An agreement does not legaly bind the actor with the agency, and is a month by month term.
• If you are unsure if an agency is SAG/AFTRA franchised, e-mail: question@takeoneacting.com or go to www.sag.com.
