Share Your Testing Experience.

Submit any and all tests for review!

The Testing Committee is a group of Animation Guild member volunteers dedicated to changing the abusive culture of testing in our industry, and hearing directly from artists about what they’re going through is critical to our work.

Please answer the questions below to the best of your ability. We also encourage you to attach any instructional or reference materials that were provided to you as part of the test. Your privacy and safety are our top priority, so anything you share with us will only be seen by members of the Committee. If you are concerned about violating an NDA, please write to us at testingcommittee@tag839.org so we can provide additional guidance.

Thank you for taking the time to share your testing experience with us!

(Please note that you do NOT have to be a Guild member to use this form. We also welcome submissions about tests from non-union animation studios, but be aware the Guild only has the ability to enforce our contract with signatory studios.)
