We are getting ready for negotiations and the best way to stay informed is at www.TAGnegotiations2024.com. Keep up-to-date on negotiations, learn more about the bargaining process, spread the word using the social press kit and more.
The results from our AI Economic Impact Study reflect an important reality that entertainment industry leaders are increasingly embracing GenAI technology to the detriment of creative workers.
We know that many TAG members are being impacted by work stoppages related to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. For those who are struggling and in need of support, we have compiled a list of important resources that can provide some relief during this uncertain time.
Whether you are new to The Animation Guild or a veteran member, questions come up that you might not be 100 percent sure of the answer. Check out our newly reorganized FAQ page to find responses to the most commonly asked questions.
Are you dealing with an issue in the workplace and need to talk with someone about it? Visit our Workplace Issues page and submit a confidential form sharing your situation.
Whether you’re exploring your options or you’re ready to organize your crew, we are here to help!
