It’s time for #VFXStudios to pay up. You’ve long underpaid runners with wages who aren’t liveable, require parental financial support, inheritance, savings, or a second job. You can’t be an inclusive employer and not pay living wages - stop cutting corners for the lowest paid.

@svenskhistoria @svt Hahah åh tack, då får jag hålla tummarna att en BTS kommer i framtiden! Går det att se Vetenskapens värld även utomlands?

[Pia Josephson #JoinAUnion @Pia_Josephson]

Okej men när kommer behind the scenes av Sveriges Historia!! Hur fick ni med Ludwig Göransson!! Vad var budgeten!! Var spelade ni in!! Intervjuer med alla mask & kostym-crew, produktionsdesigners, researchen bakom? Å mer forskare!! @svenskhistoria @SVT !!

Actually part of a bigger discussion how as soon as credits start to roll, streaming sites are hopping to the next episode, or start auto playing a trailer - it needs to be much easier to stay on to watch the credits and see all
the below the line workers

[Pia Josephson #JoinAUnion @Pia_Josephson]

Would be so nice if your website was actually working and it’s possible to pause - trying to watch the credits to see fellow colleagues’ names, but as soon as you get to the credits, the page becomes unresponsive 🙃 @DisneyPlus

God damn. What a start to the piece the Harvard law review refused to run.

THE #SagAftraStrike IS OVER.

I can’t believe there’s not more hype about the fact that Ludwig Göransson has done the score for SVT’s (Swedish public service, kinda like BBC) new documentary Historien om Sverige, about the history of Sweden? Hello 112 how did they convince him to do this and with what budget!

[Pia Josephson #JoinAUnion @Pia_Josephson]

The only thing that happens to the every day person is that films and series get delayed premiere dates. That’s it. Nothing else. So I’m begging everyone who isn’t working in the industry to pipe down and stop complaining that you can’t watch films that haven’t even been made

[Pia Josephson #JoinAUnion @Pia_Josephson]

I understand people’s frustration when front line workers, such as doctors, nurses, and teachers strike, because it affects the every day person. However, unless you’re working in the film- and tv industry, you are just categorically not affected by the SAG-AFTRA strike.

THIS is the future: AI protections for voice and likeness, an invaluable tool for performers.

Thank you to Senator @ChrisCoons, Senator @MarshaBlackburn, @SenAmyKlobuchar and @SenThomTillis for driving the NO FAKES Act. https://t.co/g9fiKCbHHD

The AMPTP has reprehensibly walked away from talks with SAG-AFTRA.

As the dispute drags on, UK film and TV workers continue to pay the price of AMPTP's failed negotiations.

Solidarity with SAG-AFTRA and we urge AMPTP to get back to the table now 📢

Disappointing news also for @Bectu members this morning. That the AMPTP has walked away from the negotiations is reprehensible. There is so much at stake for all workers in the industry globally that the responsibility to find a resolution to this dispute cannot be overstated

[Pia Josephson #JoinAUnion @Pia_Josephson]

Spoke to @Screendaily at yesterday’s BECTU demonstration about the pay cuts and pay loans that one of the largest #VFX studios, #DNEG, has just implemented.
