Short Ends: Actors, Agents & Managers, Oh My! Pt. 2

March 1, 2016 By Ron Dawson

Today I continue my discussion with show regulars JD & Yolanda about the role that agents and managers play in Hollywood.

In this installment, we get insight into the contractual obligations of agents and actors, why agents get 10%, and what happens if an actor gets a new agent mid-negotiation of a movie deal.

We end the conversation with a comical display of my inability to grasp why it is an agent can’t also serve as a manager, and why managers typically get 15% (or even more). Will JD and Yolanda be able to explain this concept to me? Tune in to find out.

Radio Film School: Short Ends

Short Ends:
1. The unused portions of an undeveloped motion picture film reel. Frequently used by indie and student films on low budgets.

2. Short, autonomous Radio Film School documentary or narrative episodes about all things cinema.

Radio Film School
Host Ron Dawson takes you on a journey to discover what it means to be a filmmaker. A show unlike any other for the passionate and aspiring filmmaker, Radio Film School is more of an audio documentary than a traditional podcast. Think of it as This American Life for filmmakers.
