Actor Dictionary | Station 12

Station 12 is the strange name given to the process where a producer follows up with SAG to make sure an actor is of good standing prior to hiring them for a project.  As soon as the actor books the job, he or she becomes "SAG Eligible." Thirty days later, the actor becomes "SAG Must Join," and can no longer work SAG jobs without joining the union. The union enforces this rule by requiring producers to verify the actor's status by contacting the union, a procedure oddly called "Station 12." There doesn't seem to be any Stations 1 through 11.
