Indie Memphis 2008

Are you considering producing your own film? Don’t know where to start? Presented by Screen Actors Guild (SAG) and conducted by David Fazekas (SAG South Region Executive) this discussion will introduce and explain SAG’s various low-budget agreements, including special agreements for short and student films. David will walk you through the process of signing a SAG low-budget agreement from start to finish, and answer any other questions you might have about SAG. Just because your film isn’t produced by a studio doesn’t mean you can’t use professional talent. In fact, input from indie producers continues to help SAG revise and improve its five low-budget agreements to make it even easier for filmmakers to use SAG actors, regardless of their budget. If you’re going to compete with the big boys you need all the help you can get. So go on, and take advantage of SAG’s vast pool of well-trained talent for your next project. They can always find their mark, pick up cues and in the end save you time and money.
