UBCP members, the self-tape survey from the union is out. Check your email.
Thanks to UBCP leadership and staff for taking input and getting this out quickly. We encourage all members to take this important survey and have your voices heard!
On Labour Day, we encourage UBCP/ACTRA performers to consider the day's meaning. Labour Day honours the history of labour and the conditions and rights workers have fought to obtain.
Check these points in our current master production agreement and speak out.
Happy Labour Day!
"We have heard loud and clear from our membership on this topic. This is clearly a topic of great interest and concern."
Check out @sagaftra 's latest Spotlight on Self Tapes where they reveal some of the results of their membership survey.

Scheduled my first zoom audition with a pro reader provided by one of the main casting studios in Vancouver, and I am amazed at how relieved I feel.
Now I can focus on prepping, and not worry about asking a friend to also work on the weekend.
This makes a world of difference.
I spend so much time helping my actor friends with self-tapes & I have to say this⦠SO MANY SHOWRUNNERS are making their own lives harder by having actors audition with terrible sides.
Actors and film industry colleagues,
See the following update from our collective. We hope you find the news unifying and promising. We wish you all a fantastic weekend!

Thank you to town hall attendees for such positive feedback. See the slides for just some of the thoughts.
Our collective is hard at work this week formulating our next steps. Stay tuned!
#InSolidarity
Thank you to the over 130 actors and industry colleagues who showed up for the town hall last night and engaged in a wonderful evening of shared experience, strategizing for the future and healing our troubled souls. It was a privilege to host.
Change is coming.
