The actor is a key creative component and selling point in getting a feature film made. Today’s market is largely “name” driven. Making a deal with a recognizable actor is a critical factor for attaining financing and eventually producing a film. Additionally, because the actor is the only creative element that appears on the screen, as well as in the advertising and promotion, the actor can be very demanding during negotiations. Therefore, the actor agreement is often the most challenging deal to negotiate. Understanding how to navigate the negotiation process and nuances of the actor agreement is essential for producers, directors, writers, actors and anyone interested in the film business. The workshop will outline and discuss the basic terms of the actor agreement along with the important issues to consider when negotiating the deal.

Workshop fees are $5 for student and senior members of C.L.A.; $10 for other non-guest members of C.L.A., co-sponsors, and Santa Monica residents; and $20 for guest and non-members unless otherwise noted. To register, please call C.L.A.'s Santa Monica office at (310) 998-5590, or email clasocaled@gmail.com.
