First formed in 2019 on the East Coast and united with West Coast colleagues in 2023, Post Production Guild is a collection of freelance Post Production Producers, Supervisors, Coordinators and Production Assistants working in Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, and across the United States in scripted film and television. Our aim is to protect the economic interests of our members, while ensuring the creative integrity of our workplace. Our numbers represent a workforce that produces and delivers content for some of the most esteemed and established studios including, but not limited to Apple TV/Studios, CBS/Showtime/Paramount, Walt Disney Studios, HBO/Max, NBC/Universal, Sony, and Netflix.
​
The motion picture and television industry is heavily unionized, with many of these organizations established over 75 years ago. It is time to recognize the contributions of Post Production professionals and workers within the motion picture industry, and provide our workforce with the same basic protections, standards, and benefits enjoyed by our union film and TV colleagues.
WHO WE ARE
As post production workers, we establish and oversee the post production process from workflows to dailies to cuts, to final delivery. We ensure the creative and technical integrity of each project we put on the screen. We serve as the point of contact for everything Post. We are the first ones in and the last ones out. We get the 3AM phone calls. We make sure everything runs on time. We are engineers and therapists and stand-up comedians all rolled into one. We think in science and stories and spreadsheets. We are cheerleaders and the wranglers of our departments. We wear more hats than most people own.
We make sure the magic happens.
WHAT WE'RE
FIGHTING FOR
-
A HUMANISTIC WORK CULTURE - We want a regulated 50-hour work week with minimum requirements for turnaround and adequate rest. No more uncompensated overtime hours. No more doubling up on duties without additional compensation and benefit contributions.
​​
-
A STANDARDIZED JOB DESCRIPTION – We want clear parameters of what is required of our jobs.
​​
-
MINIMUM STAFFING REQUIREMENTS - We want sufficient support based on our projects’ needs. No more three-person post teams on large-scale projects. No more two-person teams or less for smaller productions.
​​
-
A HEALTH INSURANCE & PENSION PLAN – We want a health insurance and pension plan that is union-protected, and expanded to Coordinators and PAs. We want equal benefits with our union colleagues.
​​​​
-
SCALE WAGES– We want rates that are on par with the rest of our industry peers, that reflect our job responsibilities and take into consideration the increasingly high cost of living in cities where we are employed. We need basic minimums that go up yearly, reflect our experience, and keep up with inflation. All boats must rise with the tide.
​​
-
PAID TIME OFF - Sick, Holiday, Vacation Pay & Parental Leave are all benefits our union colleagues already enjoy
