    • Complying with the event organizer's rules and policies, particularly with respect to photography and video recording. Autographs, selfies, or photography requests of any kind are not permitted.

    • It is unacceptable for members to attempt to access events without a proper RSVP or ticket, present fraudulent identification, or enable another person to falsely represent themselves using your identification and/or Nominating Committee card.

  • SAG Awards Nominating Committee members may not communicate directly with film companies or their representatives regarding the SAG Awards except to RSVP to screenings. This includes personal requests and comments. If you have ADA accommodation requests, please contact our Awards Office.

  • If your plans change after you RSVP for an event and you can no longer attend, you MUST cancel. You can do so by using the cancellation email listed on each invitation. No shows may result in a penalty.

Any violation of the rules or transgression of decorum will be subject to review by the Awards Committee, which has authority to remove the member from present and future Nominating Committees, and to recommend that a member be brought up on disciplinary charges.
