"I honestly felt like I learned more about the business of acting [in Hollywood Winners Circle Academy] than anything I ever known. And I thought I knew a lot being a recent graduate of the American Academy Of Dramatic Arts. Wendy you were very patient and kind to me. You took the time out to see where I was coming from and leveled with me so I could fully understand what I was getting myself into. Thank you so much for speaking very clearly about how to build relationships with actors, directors and casting directors. Wendy Alane Wright is an amazing person. Can't wait to see what the future holds." - Luc Jean

Until you've studied with a legit coach for a few years and started to book principal roles in non union gigs don't bother just yet. If you live in a small town or right-to-work state, then don't bother. If you start booking paid acting gigs, then you may start to consider joining. If you want to do this for a living and not as a hobby, then you may consider joining. If you plan on moving to LA or NY then you may consider it. Realize it costs close to 4k to join then dues every 6 months whether you work or not. All of this info is something any legit acting coach should be able to convey to you.

But how do you even get an audition for a SAG project if most SAG projects require people to be in the Union already? My agent won't even submit me for SAG stuff because I am not SAG. Any tips? thank you!

I thought you were a must joint after your second job . After the third then you have to join . Did this change. ? I was always told sag/ aftra E was a good place to be . But it seems nobody is SAG/AFTRA E after thirty days you become must join.

[@wendyalane1]

My suggestion is to call the SAG-AFTRA office and ask your questions directly!

I have been doing background jobs for a few years, and I have two waivers. I need to get one more waiver to be able to join SAG. What do you suggest to get the third one? Also if I am non-union, is it possible to book a SAG project? I thought you had to be a SAG member to work a SAG job.

[@jbilotta]

Did the rules change because I thought you had to work three days union or have 3 Taft Hartleys to join. I’ve been eligible since 1998. When you’re saying you only need to book one union job that’s not the way I understood it back in 1998. Edit: One day is SAG eligible for principal meaning you have lines. I think that’s a point that definitely needs to be clarified because you could have no lines and get three Taft Hartleys like I did back in 1998 and be SAG eligible.

[@wendyalane1]

Yes! So many things have changed over the decades!

$3,000 is a lot for someone starting out. Sounds like gate keeping. People w/ the money or Daddies with it preferred? I support the union but that upfront fee seems elite-ish.
