Two organizations in Barcelona provide support and solutions to help artists building their careers and meeting the right people.
The first one, the Associació d’Actors i Directors Professionals de Catalunya (AADPC), was born in 1981. It brings together actors, actresses, and directors who work in Catalonia.
Its purpose is to ensure the improvement of working conditions, protect its members and stimulate contacts between professionals of the industry.
The Unión de Actores y Actrices (UDA) is a professional and independent organization that stands up for the rights of its members.
Casting directors would contact the Unión when looking for actors for the production of a film or TV movie. The Unión manages a directory of all the actors and actresses members.
This organization provides them with legal aid and offers regular training and courses to improve their skills.
