We are aware of the union’s May 14 communication to its members. It is important to note that this communication is NOT specific to the advertising industry and does not have any impact on productions where a member is not on set/location and is not interacting with any production personnel.
We know that as stay-at-home orders are modified and lifted, the advertising industry will resume in-person productions. First and foremost, any productions will need to comply with applicable federal, state, and local guidelines. In addition, the JPC and SAG-AFTRA are working together to develop safety guidelines to protect industry personnel and talent. In the meantime, if you are planning any in-person productions, please contact Kim Stevens to discuss health and safety requirements.
