An overwhelming majority of film and TV workers have given the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees permission to strike if the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers doesn’t offer them a better deal.
The pandemic across all industries brought out the need to find mental stability. We all felt what sitting with our fragile human selves looked like. Then to take those slowed down fragile minds and bodies right back to the normal we have all known — we are breaking. The pandemic has reminded us we have a voice. If we don’t say what we need we will keep breaking.
I voted yes because a studio or executive producer’s inability to properly budget a realistic delivery schedule that factors in the value of their crew is not my problem to solve anymore . After decades of unsustainable hours, unreasonable requests, and very little time off in between workdays, our bodies and minds are telling us something has to change. Members of IATSE are connecting with each other, and I have realized we are all treading water trying to maintain any semblance of a balanced healthy life. The current pace and schedule do not allow enough time to sleep, attend to family needs or just shut out the stress of the workday or week.
We work until we drop. So many of my mentors never picked up their first retirement check for this reason. It has to stop. A strike will be scary. I will be out of work with no ability to collect unemployment. I risk losing my house and my savings, everything really. On the upside, it may be the only time I get a break from work.
