Welcome to Art Rights Association
An Artist Card issued by Art Right Association acts as a gateway to enter the film and entertainment industry. In major production hubs like Mumbai and Chennai, possessing a valid union card is often mandatory for artists who wish to participate in movies, television shows, serials, advertisements, or web productions.
There are generally two categories of cards – Junior Artist and Senior Artist. These registrations help production houses hire verified talent while ensuring artists receive structured opportunities and protection.
The primary purpose of an artist card is to safeguard the professional rights of artists such as fair payment, defined working hours, and proper treatment on set. When large productions require a high number of artists, registered members are given preference.
This card is especially valuable for junior artists who may not have formal training but work in the industry to earn a stable livelihood. Even if you have small or non-speaking roles, registration builds credibility and opens doors for future assignments.
Registered artists can raise concerns with the association in situations like unpaid overtime or unfair practices. Having an official card often acts as a positive catalyst in strengthening your professional journey.
If you aspire to work in films or media, obtaining your card through Art Right Association is one of the most important first steps toward entering the industry safely and professionally.
For anyone interested in working in the glamorous world of cinema, following the correct registration process is essential. While the industry looks exciting from the outside, proper membership ensures your security, identity, and access to opportunities.
Whether you are a daily wage worker, junior artist, or someone aiming for bigger roles, the card provides recognition and protection within the film ecosystem.
