ITA: Check Your Checks and Make Your F***ing Deadlines!

We talk, we rant, we mic drop! Literally.


Why is everyone traveling? The rules are just lifting and travel
is about to start in Canada.


Yes, the US is really opening up, and travel is happening. We
have FOMO!


Let your agent know your away dates and try not to send last
minute.


Hang in there, we know it's been a bit slower lately across North
America. Hang tight. We should be in full swing by the middle of
June.


Make your deadlines! Put your best work forward. We want you to
have all possible opportunities and the best chance of booking.
If you miss a deadline, casting may not watch your tape. They do
a set deadline for a reason. Don't procrastinate or make excuses.


We are doing our job, do yours dammit! Don't miss any great
opportunities.


Do you check your paystubs when you receive them from your agent?


Make sure you understand how you are paid, and what you were
paid. Accountants are making a lot of errors these days.


Covid tests are no longer commissionable on SAG contracts. It is
commissionable on Actra and UBCP agreements if it's part of your
wardrobe or work day.


As of May 1st most Canadian covid tests are not commissionable,
just for the test. The covid test rate has been reduced as well
to $250.00. Keep that in mind. Its no longer a full principal day
rate.


Are you on the same page as your agent? Make sure. We aren't mind
readers! CONNECT.


Let's hope the Canadian quarantine ends soon in general or for
the entertainment industry. We want to keep encouraging the US to
come work in Canada.
