TAG Writers: have you been hired to write a pitch bible, mini bible, or full bible? Better check out our guide! DISCLAIMER: There are no definitions in our current contract to distinguish the different bible types, so these guidelines are the WCC's suggestion. Questions? Link in bio!

We’re creating a huge change in culture in our Union. Building engagement takes a long time and there are no shortcuts. But things only get better if we get involved. The Union is all of us, not some external entity! ❤️

BOO! Just in time for spooky season... #StandWithAnimation if you want to avoid the frights of Al in your cartoons! #noAl #WritersNotRobots #ArtistsNotRobots www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8dmj8Wq/

The FACTS about freelance writing for animation: #FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8dBHLNY/

61% of polled business leaders see generative Al disrupting the jobs of animation workers, with 29% of them in danger of being displaced. Gen Al is trained on the work of writers and artists, without whom AI is nothing. PEOPLE make animation. #WritersNotRobots #ArtistsNotRobots #standwithanimation

Think we're exaggerating about how bad our freelance unit rates are? We have the data, and we have the testimonials. When writers fall off their health insurance despite working full time hours it's not just a problem, it's a CRISIS. #standwithanimation

Freelance writer unit rates are destroying the craft of animation writing. These aren't just bad rates, they are UNLIVABLE. They are turning a career into a hobby, only viable for those who are already well off. When we say we can't live off of these wages we mean it. #standwithanimation

Negotiations resume today! To show support, we're continuing our Solidari-TEAs! TAG Writers - Freelance, Unaffiliated, etc! are welcome to our virtual break! Tuesday Sept 17, 12:30pm Zoom link: us06web.zoom.us/j/8832352401...

Leave creativity to humans. We have a good track record. Animation workers have made Studios LITERALLY BILLIONS OF DOLLARS but sure, throw your money in the Gen Al dumpster fire because unregulated tech has always been a good investment *COUGH NFTS COUGH* #StandWithAnimation #noAl #WritersNotRobots

TAG shows perform as well as WGA shows, yet TAG writers make less than half the pay! Make it make sense! #SamePagesSameWages #StandWithAnimation #animation #greenscreen www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8ej3vX7/

Last week’s WCC meeting was delayed because our chairs were busy telling the AMPTP we need a better deal! Have questions on: Negotiations? Contract extension? Escalating actions? The next round? Get answers. New WCC meeting THIS THURS, 8/22, at 7pm. Check your email or rsvp at [email protected]

That’s my prep work! I don’t know you!!! www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRoKWnrd/

Got a TAG freelance script? Charge for prep work! Freelance unit rates only cover script writing, not meetings, summits, watching/reading stuff to get up to speed. Don't forget to invoice for prep work. #FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation #NoContractNoCartoons www.instagram.com/reel/C-ajP2d...

What do TAG writers think of all freelance writing rooms? "It's a stupid, stupid game. It does not work. The logic is really not right." #FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation #NoContractNoCartoons www.instagram.com/p/C-X-eWGRMJ...

#FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation #NoContractNoCartoons

All freelance writing rooms create wages too low to make a living, turning the craft from a once viable career into casual gig work. This is not how strong shows are made, this is not sustainable pay. #FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation #NoContractNoCartoons www.instagram.com/reel/C-V1JbG...

Freelance unit rates are killing animation writing! What started as trying out new writers and filling employment gaps for seasoned writers has turned into an all-you-can-cheat buffet for studios. #FreelanceNotFreeWork #StandWithAnimation #NoContractNoCartoons www.instagram.com/reel/C-VZqN4...
