Everything You Wanted to Know About Low Budget Contracts but Were Afraid to Ask

Jul 23, 2018 - 3:30 PM to 6:00 PM CDT

Where:

Has your friend asked you to be in their next web series? Do you enjoy working with local filmmakers on short and ultra low budget productions? Do you want to figure out how to find this kind of work? Are you making your own short, feature or webisode?

All of these require that the production be under a union contract - even if you are deferring your pay. If you work on these type of productions and want more information on your rights, how to flip a non-union production into a union production or what the paperwork looks like, then this is a must-attend event for you.

When: 5:30 - 8 p.m., Monday, July 23

Where: Kauffher Members Resources Center (KMRC)
1 E. Erie, Suite 660
Chicago, IL 60611

Please RSVP to Kathy Byrne at kathy.byrne@sagaftra.org. If you have any questions, please call (312) 867-5508.
