I’m pretty certain David Zazlov just hates *ART* overall. FTFY.

Anyone remember when TLC, SciFi, and the Discovery Channel suddenly went to shit? He wants us to only have access to the most brain dead “entertainment.” That’s his M.O.

[AnimationProdUnionNOW @prod_animation]

I’ll settle for tar and feathering, and then for him to walk the Warner movie lot and Hollywood Way. #releasecoyotevsacme

[Carsten Kurpanek @Kurpanek]

#CoyoteVsAcme is about a giant corporation choosing stock over empathy, doing nothing "illegal" but morally shady stuff for profit. It's a David vs Goliath story. It's about the cynical and casual cruelness of capitalism and corporate greed.

No wonder Warner doesn't want to #releasecoyoteVsACME

Follow stories_of_tag on Instagram if you aren’t already. I’m so happy that these stories are getting out there regardless of who puts them out for all to see. #WePowerAnimation

Fuck everything about this. #WePowerAnimation #BoycottAI

[Cartoon Brew @cartoonbrew]

Dreamworks co-founder Jeffery Katzenberg says AI will cut animation production time and labor by at least 90% within the next three years.

How offensive that workers would want to *checks notes* have increased take-home pay by commuting less, make lunch at home, or buy expensive clothing for work.

“It was actually more profitable for them to stay home because one, they didn’t work as hard, regardless of what they told you. Second, they don’t spend money to commute. They can make their lunch at home. They don’t have to buy expensive clothes, so their incomes are higher.”

It’s #WorldMentalHealthWeek. How many of your companies are trying to tell you “everything’s fine, just request time off, unplug, do box breathing, etc” while most of us are facing uncertainty regarding employment? #MHW2023 #AnimProdUnionNOW #WePowerAnimation

[Patrick Osborne @PatrickTOsborne]

Really wish more animation studios were run by people who like animation.

[AnimationProdUnionNOW @prod_animation]

I still can’t believe that just three years ago there were almost more animation jobs than we could count. Now it’s the polar opposite.

It’s a very weird time in animation but we’re fired up, frustrated. #WePowerAnimation

[AnimationProdUnionNOW @prod_animation]

@animationguild @TAGwriters This has been a rough week for DW. Can’t help but think of everyone who will be affected by this pointless decision. My hope is that this will only drive us to strike next year.
