SAG-AFTRA has found itself defending its decision to give the green light to more than 100 independent productions to film during the strike. Many members, including Sarah Silverman and Viola Davis…
In a message to members on Sunday evening, the union’s negotiating committee said that the“We urge independent producers to apply and encourage SAG-AFTRA members to work on the projects that obtain an Interim Agreement, along with all of the other permissible work we support,” the union said.
That includes a provision under which a production must pay the cast 2% of the streaming revenue attributed by Parrot Analytics to that production. “We are confident that the terms of this agreement, particularly the streaming revenue share, will make distribution of these projects through AMPTP platforms unfeasible, until such time as an industrywide agreement has been reached,” the committee said.
Many people refer to the agreements as a “waiver,” though SAG-AFTRA disapproves of the term. The union notes that productions are not getting around SAG-AFTRA’s demands, but in fact are accepting them, which increases pressure on AMPTP companies.
