The misconceptions and fallacies around this subject make me
I'm not gonna waste time arguing, I'll just urge the detractors to please actually read the union's demands before talking. This is not about money nearly as much as working conditions.
Tldr:
- limits on vocally stressful recording sessions (vital when your livelihood is being damaged)
- stunt coordinators on performance capture (safety, prevent injury like any respectable job)
- transparency in the work you're signing up for (fewer nasty surprises you never consented to)
- residuals after 2 million units sold (not hurting the little guy or unsuccessful projects)
I don't see how that's unreasonable. This is not a zero sum game where improved conditions for one section means worse for the rest. If this creates a precedent for other crew to be treated more fairly themselves, so much the better.
