The Hustle

Nearly 25 stunt performers and the Local Board showed up at the Round House Bar & Grill in Metairie on May 16 for a special mixer and conversation with guests from the SAG-AFTRA national office. Members received updates on recent changes to the Stunts, Safety, Singers and Dancers Department by its director, Cedric Jackson. Jim Damis, national director, field services, and Joel Reamer, regional set relations representative, discussed Joel’s new position and plans for him to visit sets throughout the local’s jurisdiction more frequently as part of SAG-AFTRA’s efforts to increase on-set support and improve contract enforcement.
