Spent my birthday at the IATSE rally to kick off negotiation with the AMPTP. Hoping things go better than last year with the actors/ writers strike!
Here is a Hollywood Reporter arcticle about it.
It was fun running into old friends I haven’t worked with in ages. We all were wearing our IATSE merchandise – and I even made a special t-shirt for Violet, who has an interest in acting, directing, and editing. So, all these fights are for her future!
I realize I never posted photos from last summer when she joined me on the writer’s picket line.
Man, I hope these weird times pay off and we’re not just wasting our time encouraging her to apply for film school. She was raised on sets, so it’s all she knows.
The t-shirt I made my kid (and the front has a chest emblem that says “The Future is Female”), and pics from last summer at the picket line. Also made her a t-shirt then! It says “Future WGA Member”.
