SAG Launches Actors' Web Tool

Since the Screen Actors Guild launched the online web tool iActor last month, they've already added 1,000 new members and over 200 casting directors.

iActor gives every SAG actor the chance, writes SAG in an email, "to gain exposure to all SAG-signatory productions and major industry players. An industry first, iActor is the only online casting directory that allows casting directors, producers and SAG-signatory production entities the ability to source and then directly verify an actor's union eligibility for work. By taking the Station 12 cast clearance process online, SAG has delivered a powerful digital solution to what has traditionally been a complicated and time-consuming process. Now any SAG member in good standing from anywhere in the country and at any time receives the same amount of exposure to industry pros by simply uploading their resume and headshots and the service is free to SAG members and industry members."
