Asking for a friend; but, in the world of non union digital content shoots, what are the meal period laws for crew on pre-light and shoot days? I always follow union rules to be safe and because it’s the bare minimum producers should do for their crew, but hearing about a production team not feeding their crews ANY meals and only feeling the talent and client is really getting under my skin, sounds illegal, and I want to get to the bottom of what the rules really are. Any advice is appreciated 💖

The rules are. Just be considerate and a good human. Always ask yourself how would I treat my own kids or someone you care about. Rinse and repeat. 👍🏽

State law takes precedent in this situation. Most states are 6 hours before a 30 minute meal break.

In CA folks are also entitled to 2 rest breaks of 10min each.. not that most productions follow that law..
