Actors Unions: Should You Join?

by | Career Advice

Last last year I was contacted by Voice Over Xtra to write an article about the Actors unions. I was quite honored to be asked and wanted to convey a fair overview about the timing of joining up…or not.

I wrote the article from the standpoint of my own experience, which is fairly extensive, in an objective manner. I neither push or shove the decision to become a member of AFTRA or SAG either way, because an actor must exercise their own personal and business choice.

Just the facts. Stated clearly and simply.  I hope the information is helpful to those who don’t understand the unions, and are considering membership in the structuring of their career paths.

  1. Some good thoughts on unions…

    My friend Bobbin Beam has an article on the VoiceOverXtra site about union membership. I think it’s well worth a few minutes of your time.
    By the way, I found the link to this article while reading Bobbin’s voiceover blog.
