CMF's National Survey of Performers
Why participate? Your experience matters and this survey will give the Canada Media Fund and ACTRA real data on what performers are facing today. Your input may help shape more informed programs and supports for performers in the future. The survey closes on Tuesday, December 16 at 11:59pm ET.
CRTC: After Thirty Years… Is This It?
The CRTC made a long-awaited ruling on how their new Canadian Content Definitions will apply to our work. While further CanCon announcements are yet to be made, this first step is not promising for ACTRA performers.
Producers: Get on brand!
ACTRA has a new logo and your end credits should look as sharp as it does! Visit our Brand Centre to download high resolution logos in white or black for all production needs. Show the world that you proudly used the best performers there are - ACTRA performers!
