    SAG Representative Ruth Paul will walk you through signing SAG’s Low Budget Agreements from start to finish. It’s not as scary as you might think. And now we’ve made more changes to our contracts, so it is even easier to use professional actors without all the red tape. Don’t let what you don’t know nix your plans for the perfect cast. If you are a producer, director, writer, casting director or agent, come join us. Contract talks aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but it sure beats having to cast your little sister as your female lead.
