Matt Jones Instagram – This is for my fellow actors. The outpouring I’ve received from just reposting this article in my stories has been overwhelming. I encourage you to read the article and the comments below it because many people share their stories and it’s so refreshing that most actors are on the same page. SELF TAPES are bad for our business in many many many ways. Need reasons? Read the comments on that article, there’s hundreds of reasons. Let’s just say It punishes all of us (but those with kids the most) But what can we control? Of course there’s people trying to take advantage of others in this situation by basically stealing money and time from actors on all sides. It’s Hollywood. It’s what the city has always done. Actors are getting paid less than they have in 30 years, but so are casting directors. We can’t control the budgets and what producers/networks/studios do. But what we should have is some kind of protection from our union. Please tell me what @sagaftra has done in decades besides give us health insurance (that gets worse every year). Stop using Covid as an excuse while you explain to me how important it is while your mask is around your chin. | Posted on 04/Mar/2023 00:13:00
