Rates and Fees - Selective Casting by Carol Nadell, Casting Director

Rates and Fees

Fees for Selective Casting and Internationally Speaking are based on the number of characters needed to be cast and the complexity of the project. Therefore, we work on a flat project fee, not a day rate, which is decided upon before beginning the project.

For current talent rates, we have provided links below to SAG (Screen Actors Guild) and AFTRA (American Federation of Television and Radio Actors).**

(From www.AFTRA.org - rates are same for both SAG and AFTRA)

**The rate quoted by each union does not include pension and welfare, taxes, fees for payroll talent payment companies and agent fees. To estimate the cost of these additional fees, add 40% to scale rate.
