@NinaSerafina lot of people on here going "I was paid in burgers and worked 14 hour days for a film that went on to make millions of dollars, and I leveraged that into more opportunities for myself instead of being rightfully paid what I was owed for my labor" so lost

[nina lee @NinaSerafina]

I have worked minimum wage retail jobs and when the store made $20,000 in one day I’d receive a bonus, but you’re telling me it’s impossible in film? I’m not even saying it must be done. But yall are acting like the conversation can’t even be had smh

[nina lee @NinaSerafina]

People telling the art director from Obsession “too bad, that’s what you signed up for” instead of collectively encouraging that once small budget films reach a certain number all cast and crew receive a bonus, is why we’ll never be free.

so many creatives would love to invest in themselves and others and lack the means to do so.

i think it's quite brave of that AD to risk her rep to advocate for better working, living, and thriving conditions

[not the biscuit ・ comics class in bio @halftes6]

and how do the producers get all the money to 'shoulder risk' to begin with?

A NYT investigation confirms what educators have long known: social media companies made deliberate choices to capture students' attention during the school day, despite internal warnings about the harm to learning and mental health.

Educators have carried the weight of this for years. We owe it to our students to demand accountability and keep classrooms focused on learning.

Microbudget movies often do survive on the goodwill and generosity of friends and professionals. The very least you can do as an artist is to try and pay back that generosity if you can. That’s just like, common sense.

[Lego Kingo @LegoKingo]

I don’t really know why people keep saying that the art director for obsession saying that in hindsight she probably should have flipped the production is bad for her career, as if merely wanting a unionized production is some horrible taboo in American filmmaking lol

[Andres Cabrera @SquadLeaderAce]

Yes, the workers can use the success of the film to get other jobs, which is great, but it's not enough. There should be real monetary benefits for working on a successful film, especially for low budgets. I'll always stand by the workers over massive studios and you should too.

[Andres Cabrera @SquadLeaderAce]

There is an obsession with keeping budgets low, but in reality it only helps the studios. It's a studio talking point used to low ball filmmakers. And fans buy into this "keep budgets low" bs thinking they're pro indie films when in reality they're spewing studio talking points.

[Andres Cabrera @SquadLeaderAce]

The celebration of tiny budgets and big box office returns always felt weird to me. The studio is the one making the money. The higher ups are more than happy to raise their own income, while the workers who actually made the movie the success that it is, receive the same pay.🧵

The fruits of your labor don't belong to you. And you think this is cool and not at all infuriating?

This is why we need to abolish capitalism.

[Josh Olson @joshuarolson]

@stevenmartini @fringeblog Occasionally, yeah. But as a rule, I’m always going to stand with workers.

It’s been weird watching the biggest criticisms of her come from people who’ve endured the exploitation she’s talking about.

[Josh Olson @joshuarolson]

@fringeblog We're arguing about the fact that you're standing with management against your fellow workers.

If you're involved in the manufacturing of goods that create an ongoing stream of revenue, there's no serious argument against allowing you to participate in that stream.
