Please as an actor tell me WHY you are so desperate to keep signing these non conforming and quite frankly ILLEGAL agents agreements by SAG franchised agents, allowing them to “double dip” on agency fees, which every production company in the world will tell you that they are paying the agency fee on your behalf so that you don’t have to pay it, thus the term “agency fee”, if you submitted yourself there wouldn’t be a “agency fee”, should be your first clue.

Plus allowing them to cash a check made out to you by them stating in their agreement that you are giving them authority to “act as your designated attorney”.

First off they aren’t a licensed attorney and secondly you would need 2 witnesses and a notary to make it legal for them to deposit your check by endorsement of your name or you would have to go to their office and sign on the back “pay to the order of their agent name”.

Otherwise if over $1,000 they are committing a felony or under a thousand dollars a misdemeanor!
Any agreement regardless of your union status when dealing with a union franchised agent must use a SAG talent agreement or it is “null and void and “double dipping” on union or non union projects is illegal by IRS standards, SAG standards and the courts standards!

All as proven below, so again WHY do you CONTINUE to allow it?
Would you in any other profession, only get paid half of what you are LEGALLY ENTITLED TO?

Scroll through all of the below in case you’re in doubt and challenge your agent to reimburse you or to put you on the required agency agreement!

Have a great day and keep on

A good idea now for all actors due to AI to go ahead and trademark your voice and likeness to avoid any issues of unwarranted usage in the future!

I highly recommend this upcoming ZOOM class for only $75 to participate or only $35 to watch and learn from an extremely accomplished actor and a great dude!
You will learn more from him in this class than any class you have ever taken and probably for a lot less money as well.

I received a notification from a Mom letting me know that her daughter had attended this SCAM IPOP GIG in LA.
They are no different than John Casablanca or Barbizon they have ZERO connections with anyone but criminals in this industry!

No legit talent agents attend SHOWCASES, nor do you pay to get an agent. You start by getting involved in community theater or church plays and then student films by submitting yourself on both actoraccess and castingnetworks with 2 headshots shot shoulder up looking straight into the camera one smiling for commercial submissions and one serious for TV/Film submissions. And also a monologue shot shoulder up with no background distractions, one minute or less to act as your demo reel until you get real footage from student films or low budget indy film productions.

Only 2 % of actors make a living solely at acting and only less than 10% of 160,000 SAG actors average 20k per year to qualify for pension and health care benefits.

So 99.9% of these poor parents who spend thousands of dollars on behalf of their kids dreams by paying these criminals listed below will never in their lifetime get anywhere close to their money back!

Do what I suggested above and they will at least learn real acting skills and you won’t be misled and most importantly loose a tremendous amount of money!

Please share so no more of these criminals take another dime from these children!

Happy New Year to all actors!

Remember in 2026 to make sure to read every agent agreement every contract for AI usage and in perpetuity agreements and most importantly do not allow any agent to “double dip” on agency fees. Always get copies of checks from the payroll company and make 2026 the best year in your acting career to have fun, be prepared and
“ROCK THE ROLES”!

Just a reminder that due to my 8 and a half years as a talent agent and a WGA Signatory I have been informing the casting directors and production companies as well as SAG numerous times of this illegal practice of “double dipping” on agency fees agents talking an additional 10% or 20% on top of the10% or 20% paid by the production companies!

It is 100% illegal and violation IRS law as well because you have a tax obligation on the amount that you should have received.

I have been bringing this to the attention of casting directors and production companies for years and urging them to pay you directly and us separately and they have started doing so.

It accomplishes 3 positive things for you the actor, whom none of us would exist without you .

One you get paid the amount you are suppose to get legally.

Two you get paid on time and a agent can’t hold it for 3-4 months by lying and saying that is standard in the industry when in reality it’s 15-30 days!

Finally we agents don’t have to send out so many 1099’s at tax time because your check was made out to us.

First clue is if you submit yourself there is no “agency fee” added, thus it is what it states our commission.

If a agent calls you after you being paid and demands a additional 10% or 20% calling it “their commission”, let them know that the production company notified them that they were paid it separately and you owe them nothing!

If they say they have a contract stating they are owed it tell them to wipe their ass with that agreement because SAG will tell you it is null and void and if a non union agent, the courts or IRS will determine it is null and void as well because I have personally helped actors pursue those avenues and they all won and the agents were forced to repay the money they stole from them.

Just think by doing so the agents are getting 50% of the amount that you are getting by “double dipping”

Example project pays $3000 plus 20% agency fee, you are legally entitled to your $3000 talent fee and the agency gets an additional $600 which is their commission/agency fee, if they take an additional 20% and send you $2400 then they are getting $1200 which equals 50%.

Don’t ever let it happen again because you wouldn’t in any other industry and they can’t do nothing to you for not meeting their illegal demands for extra payment.

What are they going to do call the production company and say to blackball you because you won’t let them steal from you?

Won’t happen EVER!

So get what you are rightfully entitled to, you can actually go back 5 years statute of limitations and make them pay back every penny they overcharged you plus interest plus possible jail time.

Have a very Merry Christmas and continue to “ROCK THE ROLES”

I highly recommend this class from a true professional actor and a great price as well.

Just a heads up yesterday morning I received a personal message from castingnetworks that due to backlash from 100’s of talent agents, casting directors, you talent and with input from SAG and other sources castingnetworks has come to their senses and decided not to charge us anything!

When these greedy folks get hit in their pockets they come to their senses!

11/08/2025

Just a reminder that when the production company pays the agency fee when submitted by a agency they CANNOT take another penny out of your check claiming it is a “commission” or “submission fee” as verified by SAG and it is also a criminal offense proven in court and a federal offense with the IRS on the amount that you legally should have received and have a tax obligation on.
So start filing complaints with SAG regardless of your union status for arbitration because as you can see below even they verify it is not allowed in the industry!
