If we already contacted you about a booking, you do not need to fill out the survey for this episode.
Are you registered with us? If not, go to our website and follow the instructions to register with our company.
YOU MUST DO THIS BEFORE COMPLETING THE SURVEY. If we do not have your registration, you CAN NOT be considered.
This serves as an availability check – not a booking. If we are able to book you, it will be on the project we chose based on your responses.
There are 3 steps involved in working on the show:
1. AVAILABILITY CHECK (OR COMPLETING SURVEY)
2. BOOKING EMAIL
3. CALL INFO
Here’s an explanation of what those steps are!
1. AVAILABILITY CHECK:
A few days before each episode shoots, you will receive an availability check for the dates we need you. You will need to respond with your availability for those dates ASAP. Or complete a survey with your availability.
An availability check does NOT mean you are booked!
Once we receive everyone’s availability, we will book people based on the needs of the production for those days.
2. BOOKING EMAIL
If you are booked, you will receive a BOOKING EMAIL. It will give you the details of the days you are booked to work. You must respond to your booking or you will be replaced.
If you respond to the AVAILABILITY CHECK or FILL OUT SURVEY, and don’t receive a booking email, it means that you are not needed for that particular episode. We will do our best to get a booking email to you no later than 48 hours of the shoot date.
If production has last minute changes, this can sometimes lead to a cancellation. We will do our best to book you at a later date if this happens.
3. CALL INFO
The day before your booking you will receive your CALL INFO. You can expect this email to arrive some time between 8:00PM and 11:00PM. This is because we do not get the official call times until they are finished filming on that current day. When you receive your CALL INFO email you are REQUIRED to respond. This is how we know you have received the information and that you will be there.

inDick Wolf’s latest franchise will expand to three shows, when Chicago Med joins Chicago P.D. and Chicago Fire in prime time.
The shows will occupy the same universe, with overlapping characters and cases of the week, much like Chicago P.D. and Chicago Fire do currently. According to Wolf, Chicago Med seemed like the natural next step in the series.
“Who puts, every day, other people ahead of themselves? It’s cops, firemen, paramedics,” Wolf says in a sneak peek at his newest spin-off. “Chicago Fire was the first of the trilogy, but it could have just as easily been Chicago P.D. And where do you think the paramedics every episode take people? They take them to Chicago Med. So, here we are.”
The hospital has been in the background of Fire and P.D., but Chicago Med will introduce viewers to the major players who work at the hospital, including Chief of Psychiatry Daniel Charles ( Oliver Platt), hospital boss Sharon Goodwin (S. Epatha Merkerson) and nurse April Sexton (Yaya DaCosta).
Check out the exclusive sneak peek below. Chicago Med premieres Tuesday, Nov. 17 at 9/8c on NBC. Will you watch?

The film will star a slew of celebrities, including Jennifer Hudson, Samuel L. Jackson, Nick Cannon, Angela Bassett, Wesley Snipes, LaLa Anthony and Survivor’s Remorse” star Teyonah Paris will also star in the film.
Spike Lee’s new flick will be an update on Aristophanes’ anti-war comedy “Lysistrata.” The comedy is about the women of Athens who stop having sex with their husbands in an effort to bring the devastating Peloponnesian War to an end. Well, Lee will tell the story with a Chi-town twist.
Set in the modern day south Chicago Urban war zone nicknamed Chi-Raq (as in “Iraq”) the story sees a group of women organize against the on-going violence after the murder of a child by a stray bullet, by withholding sexual access to the point that even strippers refuse to work. What follows challenges the nature of sex, race and violence in America and the world.
