The hero’s journey
The ordinary world. Tatiana works in acting, in Legio I Imaginifera (Film, Stage & Screen).
The call. In Tatiana’s words: “When a studio treated me disposable I decided I would make my own films and treat cast and crew like kings and queens!”
The ordeal. In Tatiana’s words: “I spoke up on set when I was being treated poorly and it caused me my job. But I learned that those just weren’t the jobs I wanted.”
The return with the elixir. What Tatiana brings back: “Love one another. Never cheat. Give 100%.”
The Linchpin
The art. “Create films that make people feel good.”
The emotional labor. Story in progress.
Why indispensable. “Financiers and other creatives”.
How we priced it: $1,283 anchor (category benchmark) × (0.5 + (E5 + R3 + Q7) ÷ 30 = 1.0) ≈ $1,280 per engagement; E counts the brand, role, results and awards named in their own answers, R their public links and features, Q how fully and confidently they answered and the standards they set. Self-reported, unverified, not their quoted price.
Why book Tatiana
Meet Tatiana Zappardino, one of our Champions in Legio I Imaginifera, Film, Stage & Screen. Ask Tatiana what the work is and the answer comes straight: “I am producing a feature film in Washington State that focuses on love, sacrifice and redemption.”
Every hero’s journey has a moment where the old road ends. Here is the moment Tatiana chose this road: “When a studio treated me disposable I decided I would make my own films and treat cast and crew like kings and queens!” The hardest lesson so far: “I spoke up on set when I was being treated poorly and it caused me my job. But I learned that those just weren’t the jobs I wanted.”
Here’s the Big Domino, the one belief that makes the rest of the decision easy. It comes from the rules Tatiana won’t break: “Love one another. Never cheat. Give 100%.”
The stack, in plain terms: acting, film producing. Who it’s for: “Financiers and other creatives”. For budgeting, the industry benchmark for acting (film / television) is about $1,283 per engagement (per day (union minimum)), an industry benchmark, not Tatiana’s quoted price. On the Guild’s unified Experience · Reputation · Quality scale we estimate one engagement at about $1,280, an estimate, not Tatiana’s quoted price.
Tatiana’s TED talk title: “Stop Asking Permission to Exist!” Tatiana stands on the Founding Roll as a Neophyte, pending acceptance, and the Guild’s job is to protect that work and get it seen. Follow @Tzappar, and send booking inquiries through Contact via Guild.
