New Mexico SAG-AFTRA 2nd Vice President report 2016

PROFESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE REPORT

By Cliff Gravel / SAG-AFTRA New Mexico Local 2nd Vice President.

"At a recent film and television conference in Albuquerque, one of our national SAG-AFTRA staff said they felt New Mexico has some of the best talent agents in the country. Yay for us! But, it is important that you know New Mexico currently has only three SAG-AFTRA-franchised talent agencies, and that — as required under SAG-AFTRA membership rules — you may only be represented by a SAG-AFTRA-franchised agency."

"As of this writing, the three agencies authorized to represent you in New Mexico are the O’Agency, A&M Talent House, and Mitchell & Presley Talent Group. Choosing to be represented by any other agency in this market could lead to a violation of SAG-AFTRA membership rules."

"If you have questions or concerns about your representation or need clarification on your contract or any other agency-related issues, please feel free to contact the SAG-AFTRA Professional Representatives department at (323) 549-6745."
