I just read on IMDB that SAG has begun granting waivers to some independent filmmakers so that SAG members can continue to work in the event that a strike occurs after June 30. This is very good news for actors, who will face some financially dire circumstances if work stops at the end of the month.
Now would be a very good time to polish your networking skills and start showing up to film festivals in your area- these are the places to meet up and coming filmmakers and learn about films that are being made right now. Resist the urge to sit back and wait to see what happens- now is the time to get out there, sharpen your business tools, and stay active in the industry.
