1) A speaking role in a SAG film 2) One years membership in another performers union with at least one principle contract 3) 3 waivers - where you do background work on a SAG film at union pay ( note : most non union background work on union films is NOT an union pay, this is a special circumstance.)
It used to be you could get a SAG card for three non-speaking, "named" parts - I forget the official term, but it's like if you're "Bouncer 1" outside a nightclub and you open the door for someone then you appear in credits and it counted towards SAG membership even if you didn't get a line.
SAG dues also used to be upwards of $5k/year. Are they still really high these days?
