Hollywood's Time's Up movement has created a safety guide for entertainment industry employees on what their rights are during auditions, and nude and simulated sex scenes.

The movement, which started after the Harvey Weinstein #MeToo backlash, started in 2018 in response to allegations of sexual misconduct in the industry.

It had its own Hollywood moment during the Oscars in February 2018 when actresses Annabella Sciorra, Ashley Judd, and Salma Hayek took the stage to declare that the time had come for new voices in cinema.

The women, who are all Weinstein accusers, spoke of equality and a future without harassment and abuse, at the star studded event.

And on Friday, Time's Up released its 35-page to 'Working in Entertainment', which highlights an actor's rights in audition which uses real examples to highlight misconduct or abuse.

It was compiled by a range of industry insiders, including actresses Alyssa Milano, America Ferrera and Natalie Portman.

The guide highlights what to do in cases of harassment, discrimination, unwanted touching, sexual assault and rape, the guide's introduction says. And it covers what an actor needs to know going into 'auditions, nude and simulated sex scenes, and advises on how to report misconduct.

'If something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. If it seems like a red flag, it probably is. It's okay to say 'no', to speak up, and to leave situations that make you uncomfortable. No role, job, or relationship is worth compromising your physical or emotional safety,' the guide explains.

And it adds, 'If something happened to you, we believe you. You are not alone and we are here to help'.

But that very theme of inclusion has come under question by some who have accused the movement of being too 'cliquey' and focusing too much on movie stars, rather than the everyday working women they are supposed to represent.

One producer demanded to know why, when it was first set up in December, did Time's Up function more like a 'club' than a movement.

'Why do you have to be invited?' they asked the Hollywood Reporter, while a TV executive described early meetings as feeling 'movie star cliquey'.

The new, three-part guide includes contact information that users can use for reaching out to the U.S. Equal Opportunity Commission as well as the Rape, Abuse & Incest Network.

Actress Brie Larson, who starred as 'Captain Marvel,' in the 2019 film of the same name by Marvel Studios also contributed to the report

But it is also clear that it is being addressed to members of the entertainment industry with telephone numbers and links to Time's Up, The Actors Fund and Women in Film Sexual Harassment Helpline.

An auditioning overview recalls the perils of the 'casting couch', described as a 'terrible reality'.

'Sexual predators have used auditions as an opportunity to exercise their power over auditioning actors. Many performers have had their personal and physical boundaries compromised because the wrong person was in charge of casting (or worse, wasn't casting a legitimate project at all),' the overview says.

With that in mind, the guide lays out an actor's rights auditioning, how to prepare for requests for physical intimacy between auditioning actors and nudity during auditions.

It adds what to address, 'potentially dangerous situations' an actor may encounter while auditioning'.

Rights are spelled out under the law, as well as under the Stage Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, or SAG-AFTRA, which is the industry's organized labor branch.

Real-life examples are spelled out.

For example, it throws out the potential scenario of, 'The casting director wants to meet in a hotel room. What can I do?' Suggested responses include proposing a neutral location 'that won't compromise your safety, such as a space at a workplace, during work hours'.

SAG-AFTRA's 'Code of Conduct' recommends bringing along a 'support peer'.

An actor told to 'come back sexier', is urged to 'ask why?'

'If the request is related to the role, it is not necessarily inappropriate or unlawful. However, you do not have to comply with the request if it makes you uneasy', the guide explains.

The guide also warns about 'chemistry reads', when a performer is asked to interact with another performer being considered for a role opposite them.

Sometimes during chemistry reads, performers are asked to perform intimate acts, such as kissing or nudity, the guide says. 'If you have been asked to do a chemistry read or be involved in any situation that involves physical touch or nudity, know that you have rights.'

The guide states how one can be prepared before coming to an audition, how to communicate boundaries with a casting director, and to make sure the director is in agreement.

And it stresses having a 'frank conversation' with your acting partner before reminding the reader, 'your body is your own'.

Potential red flag questions are highlighted, such as 'The casting director made it clear that if I wanted the job I had to engage in sex or sexual acts. Is this harassment?' and elaborates on what may be considered 'retaliation'.

A gratitude page thanks more than two dozen collaborators from in front and behind the camera.

They include Alysia Reiner of Netflix's 'Orange is the New Black', Alyssa Milano from 'Who's the Boss', America Ferrera from 'Ugly Betty' and Natalie Portman of the Star Wars prequels and who won best actress for her role in 2011's 'Black Swan,' and Brie Larson of Marvel's 'Captain Marvel' film from last year.

The first volume focuses on 'Your Rights in Nude, Intimate and Sex Scenes', and is followed by 'Your Rights in Auditions' and concludes with 'Your Right to Report Sexual Misconduct and Harassment'.
