For God’s Sake… NO
Looking back, I made a terrible mistake on not making more of a stink when people would tell me they were voting for George W. Bush… Especially after the first term…
I now regret that, terribly…
Signing off on clip consent at time of hire is absurd. What kind of actor would consent to give away their performance when they have not even shot it? How can you give away what does not yet exist? That Aftra and the “Yes-men” are promoting such blatant lack of judgment, lack of respect for the craft of acting, and lack of standards to protect one’s image is frightening to me. This foolish and desperate measure alone is enough for me to vote NO.
