Inside Indies

Timecards are the quiet MVP of any union set. Boring? Maybe. Essential? Absolutely. 

In this episode, John Cooke breaks down Exhibit G, the daily timecard required by SAG-AFTRA to document performer work hours, breaks, and approvals. If you’re producing under a union agreement, this form is a non-negotiable. 

Whether you’re stepping onto your first union set or looking to tighten up your production process, this episode helps you understand where Exhibit G fits into the bigger picture: why it matters, how to manage it smoothly, and what to watch out for as you scale. 

Key insights from this episode:
 
  • What Exhibit G is and why every union shoot needs it 
  • How to fill out Exhibit G accurately for each performer 
  • The common details often missed on the form
