Commercials Contracts Books Released

SAG-AFTRA National Commercials Contracts Director Lori Hunt, Deutsch Inc. Business Affairs Manager Loy Rackley and SAG-AFTRA Commercials Contracts Manager Beth Haynes.

Production companies, advertisers, talent agencies and all others involved with hiring and representing the “best in the business” were in attendance at SAG-AFTRA’s Commercials Contracts Books Open House on June 25 at the L.A. Local. Hosted by the Commercials Department, SAG-AFTRA announced the launch of the newest edition of the Commercials Contracts book. The new books now include the first printed contract under the merged unions and have been edited to include the memorandum of agreement revisions. Between the morning and afternoon open houses held at L.A. headquarters, more than 100 industry representatives stopped by the event to pick up their copies and to meet with SAG-AFTRA staff. As a nationwide event that was held at other locals on the same day, the gathering was a part of outreach efforts to maintain and build industry relationships with the people who are committed to working with the “best in the business.”
