Producing : FREE webcast: Stage 32 x SAGindie: Breaking Down the SAG-AFTRA Signatory Process for Indie Filmmakers by Amanda Toney

Thanks for the link, Amanda Toney. I just signed up for the webcast. I'm not a producer or actor, but it helps to know about different areas of the industry.

I just signed Amanda Toney. I am eager to learn more and understand how it works. As an indie filmmaker it’s a match for myself.

Amanda, thanks for organizing the webcast. I signed up. Really useful topic for my future projects.

See you all tomorrow!

Amanda Toney, I signed up and I can barely spell SAG-AFTRA.

Wyman Brent - haha! Well, by the end of this you will know all that and then some!

Jack Vincent, American living in Switzerland.

Amazing; over the weekend I was sifting through the SAG process, and thought I bet there's a webinar on Stage 32. Not only was there it is happening just as I need it!

I am a crazy American songwriter and scriptwriter living in Germany.

Hello from Sherman Oaks/Los Angeles

Hello from sunny Austin, Texas!!

Is this your Wyman crow?

It's kismet, Laurie Ashbourne!! I love that!

Hello from Charlotte, NC!

Thanks for sharing! I also signed up for the webcast. I think it’s a great opportunity to learn more about the SAG-AFTRA process, even as an independent writer/director.

Hello everyone from a Young Boy from France!

Hello, from Manhattan Beach!!

Koby Nguyen, that was a baby raven that I rescued on the farm. I rescued two.

Patti Price, hello from someone that lived in Indian Trail long, long ago.

Be advised, while on this site, Zoom might time-out and bump us out of the meeting. That is why the Zoom's own Chat is safer.

If we sign with SAG, are all actors required to be Union? Do all actors qualify for SAG? Can our project qualify as points toward SAG membership, or does that not apply to the lower end categories?

Ashley Renee Smith I grew up in Dallas, TX! Love Austin! I'm an Aggie, but my husband is a Longhorn. Mom is a Baylor Bear.

Aloha, I'm budgeting my under $2M feature. But both my principals are working actors from Japan. Several other locally cast actors will have speaking parts. How can I budget appropriately for this scenario please?

Hi, I know this is probably somthing meant for film but I am trying to develop a pilot for an animated series right now and according to the grant people that I have talked to (trying to get funding via grants right now), I need to speak with someone that is familiar with distribution about that. If anyone is familiar with the process, feel free to DM me.

Does one have to have their entire budget before starting the process?

Must you be fully financed to start the process?

Thank you. Very informative...

Thanks a lot for this webinar, Shefali, Colin, and Ashley! It was useful and insightful.

Hello my name is Kasawuli Bantu a filmmaker based in kampala, Uganda. i've really enjoyed this webinar

I just wanted to say thank you for a great webinar- to all three of you! And of course I have one more question :) For LBA which requires theatrical release, what is that "minimum requirement"? Are you within the contract if it is in one (and any) theater and you have paying viewers/ticket holders? And if it instead goes to a streamer?

Thank you for your response Colin!
