Productions typically buy cast insurance to avoid being on the hook for production delays due to their injury or illness. In an era of heightened social media access into the lifestyle and activities of Hollywood elite, insurance companies have more access to information that could hinder a star’s insurability in a film project. So what happens if an actor or director is deemed uninsurable? Our panelists discuss the types of insurance products available, the process of getting the insurance, and how to navigate hot button issues including: an artist’s high risk activities (from drag racing to flying jets), medical marijuana usage, pre-existing health conditions and stop dates.

This session will provide participants with valuable lessons on how to maximize value from your producer share participation arrangement.

  • Sovereign Futures in Neshnabé Speculative Fiction
    borderlands DOI | 10.21307/borderlands-2020-009 Vol 19 | No 2 2020 Sovereign Futures in Neshnabé Speculative Fiction BLAIRE TOPASH-CALDWELL Michigan State University, United States Abstract Film has been the primary way dominant society has consumed inaccurate and problematic symbols, images, and stereotypes of Native peoples for over one hundred years. Indigenous-made films, on the other hand, reclaim Indigenous representational space or ‘visual sovereignty’ through narratives of Indigenous experience that highlight culturally relevant stories and contemporary issues they face. In particular, Indigenous-made speculative fiction inspires contemplations of Indigenous agency in alternative realities. Indigenous futurisms expressed in works of speculative fiction is a rejection of theoretical, institutional, and political projects that imagined Indigenous peoples in the past and excluded them from the future. Through a survey of Neshnabé speculative fiction and other art, this article argues that Indigenous futurisms constitute creative approaches to sovereignty in a multiplicity of potential futures and is an analytical framework that illuminates the ever-expanding contours of Indigenous sovereignty in order to imagine an otherwise to present and past circumstances of Indigenous existence.
