October 30th 2003: ACTRA has instituted a new procedure for dealing with Student Film Work Permits which will hopefully simplify the process and save the Members time when they come in to purchase their WPs.

We are asking that the Apprentice members obtain a copy of the one page ACTRA Student Film contract from the Student Producer (with the film's registration # listed on it) and bring it in along with the Work Permit Application.

The Apprentice can then go straight to Membership on the first floor to pay for the Permit without having to come up to the second floor and wait for a Steward to sign the document.

Auditions: Currently, Apprentice ACTRA members can obtain only 1 credit from student movies. It used to be 2 until the council meeting in October 2005, but ACTRA decided in its infinite wisdom, that only one credit would be valid. That doesn't mean that you cannot work on as many student movies as you like, but you will get only the one credit. Regrettably the Apprentices were not allowed to vote on something that affects a mere 3,200 Apprentice members. .

The roles have to be actor (6 lines or less) or Principal actor (more than 6 lines). That means that just" being" in a student movie is no justification for your getting a credit. Each college or university has a Student Movie Agreement with ACTRA which defines which projects are "ACTRA Accredited" and are movies in which Apprentice and Full members can participate.

When posting these auditions, I first try to ascertain whether the projects are "ACTRA Accredited" . For the most part, the information I receive is accurate, but you should be aware that if you act in a non-union movie and it comes to the attention of ACTRA, there could be serious consequences.

If you are asked by any college or university or student in a film programme to "help out" by acting in one of their movies, you should make your first question "Is this project ACTRA Accredited?". If it is not, or they don't know, they can find out for sure by asking the person who is in charge of the course.

To those of you who wonder why anyone would want to work on projects that don't pay, and, in fact, cost the actor money (travel, permit fee etc.) I can assure you that the experience of working in front of a camera is invaluable. Additionally you get material for your "Show Reel", and you can't get that just doing background work. Just make sure that when you sign up, you ask that you be provided with a finished copy of the movie as part of the deal!
