Milk & Honey Films.

As striking actors try to shut down the production of commercials in this country, the job action could become a boon for ad agencies working overseas.

One of those agencies is Los Angeles-based Milk & Honey Films. It has offices in Rome, Moscow, Prague and Mexico City, all of which are beyond the reach of the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists.

"We are trying to get the word out to all of our clients -- old and new -- that we are outside SAG and AFTRA jurisdiction," said Howard Woffinden, executive producer with Milk & Honey Films Production Services. "The production community exists to solve problems. The strike is a minor blip on the radar, but I see it as a long one."

Woffinden, whose company makes commercials for such clients as Reebok, Timex and McDonald's, said his office in London could be affected by the strike if English actors stand behind their Hollywood brethren. But other offices would not be impacted.

"You get top quality for less (overseas)," said Woffinden, whose company generated $10 million in revenue last year.

But Woffinden added that shooting overseas has its own issues. "The negatives are the cultural differences you have to cross," he said. "And you are not at home. If the premise is that the film world peaks in Hollywood and everything else is downhill, then you will require some extra time and patience to find what you need overseas -- but you get it."
