I'm make a PSA and going to give you a lesson in what jobs NOT TO TAKE and an example of a Casting Director NOT working on behalf of talent. I'm including a casting that came in for GEORGIA POWER, (how much money do they make), that is Offensive!!! It's a $500.00 flat fee and they are asking to use it for basically Whatever, Print and Broadcast for In Perpetuity, meaning FOREVER. First, Never take a job that is In Perpetuity, all jobs have time frames for usage and Never take a job that isn't paying what the Talent deserves, and it's Not $500.00 for this type of usage!!!!! Please DON'T TAKE these types of jobs, this CD is Hurting talent by not Education clients to the fact this isn't a fair fee for Talent!!! But, they don't care, they get their casting fee regardless of what the talent get paid. Only submit to Casting Directors who get you the rate you deserve!!!
