What you need to know once you are booked:

1. Please make sure you are available for the entire day and into the evening, if required. Unless you have an emergency, please do not cancel. If you have to cancel, you must call the office IMMEDIATELY. It is extremely difficult to replace someone especially if you cancel at the very last minute.
2.  You will receive an email the day before your filming date with all of the information you will need. It will include your PRELIM call time, location, wardrobe and hair/make-up notes. This is usually sent out between 11 a.m. – 2 p.m.
3.  You must call or send a reply email to confirm that you received and understood everything in the email by 4 p.m.  If you have any questions, this is the best time to address them.
4.  Always make sure to call the HOTLINE number after 9 p.m. the night before your work date.  This is to get your FINAL call time. The prelim call time given to you during the day often changes, so it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to call.

           HOTLINE #: 808-489-0099.

5.  VERY IMPORTANT: In order to get paid, you are required to fill out a I-9 and bring VALID IDs on your first day of work.

         OPTION A: Valid USA Passport (NOT expired) OR permanent resident card.
         OPTION B: Driver’s License/State ID/Military ID PLUS (+) Social Security Card
         OPTION C: Driver’s License/State ID/Military ID PLUS (+) Copy of Birth Certificate.

You are only required to fill out the I-9 form once – on your first day of work.

EARLY NOTIFICATION:  Work Visas must be approved by the accounting department before your workday begins. 4-5 days process required.

Currently, the SAG-AFTRA union rate for extras is $171 for up to 8 hours. For nonunion, it is $75 and up for up to 8 hours. (Rates vary for nonunion depending on the production company for which we are working.)

Work hours are typically up to 12 hours.

On your workday, upon check in, you will be given a voucher to fill out. Be sure to keep your copy that will be given to you at the end of your workday. This is very important as it is your proof that you worked. If you have not received your paycheck within 2-3 weeks, call the number located at the bottom of the voucher to check the status of your check.

Hawaii casting on demand is not the employer.  If you have not received your paycheck within 2-3 weeks, call the payroll number located at the bottom of the voucher to check the status of your check. The payroll company is also the employer. If you need to file for unemployment, please use the payroll company’s name NOT Hawaii casting-on-demand.
