Join us for a fascinating and educational series entitled Background Actor Empowerment: Make the Most of Your Business hosted by the New York Background Advisory Committee.
Part 1 of the series will spotlight On-Set Advocacy Through You and Your Field Service Representative presented by Field Service's Executive Director, Jim Damis and Senior Manager, Anthony Favichia. Learn how Field Services supports you as a member and receive guidance on how background actors can self-advocate for themselves when working on a New Media, Theatrical, or Commercial set. Whether you're a veteran, new member or restarting your professional career, this is a great opportunity to ask questions and get advice from the Field Services' staff.
