Commercial Acting Contracts and In-Perpetuity

Commercial Acting Contracts and In-Perpetuity. If you’re an actor who wants to get into commercial acting, it’s crucial that you learn about commercial acting contracts and all they entail. With select commercials going nonunion, actors don’t have SAG-AFTRA to protect them, it’s very important to know what the benefits of a SAG commercial are and the differences they may have when they’re nonunion. To do this, we must really understand what the definition of in-perpetuity and buyouts are. Before signing on to acting in any commercial, especially if it isn’t SAG-AFTRA affiliated, and it’s nonunion, WATCH THIS VIDEO!!! Hollywood Talent Manager Wendy Alane Wright will teach you everything you need to know about contracts, SAG-AFTRA, buyouts and in-perpetuity use.

Wendy is always "giving" valuable information and making it easy to understand.

This was so helpful! Thank you so much

[@JoeRussellProductions]

Thanks for the great info. I am an actor who has worked on lots of union commercial contracts, and a few non union commercial contracts. Now, I produce commercials that are almost always exclusively web based. I have not been able to convince any brand I have produced for to pay union rates on commercials. Everything is non-union and just about every company seeks a lifetime buyout (not because they plan on using it forever, but instead because they do not have a dept to handle making sure they send checks to actors every year if the commercial is still online in some form.). If you search actors access for non-union commercials, many are only offering $300 or less per day, and that includes a lifetime buyout. The actors that tend to agree to these deals are either actors who are just getting started, or actors who just want to have fun on a shoot. I recently posted a commercial that pays a total of $600 for a day session which includes the buyout fee... and I received over 1000 submissions (all LA based) in the first day.

Do buy out checks come separately In the mail ? Or do they come at the same time as the day rate checks ?

I love dogs too. Can Fimel negotiate my next contract? Lol

[@wendyalane1]

LOL! I'll see what I can do!

[@JV-ir3zw]

About 90% of acting gigs are Non union these days why? Because production companies don't want anything to do with SAG because they don't want to pay more
