The Strike Continues…
We have been receiving some anxious inquiries about the continuation of the strike. To clear up any confusion, be advised:
- ACTRA and the CFTPA reached a tentative deal on Friday last.
- Shortly thereafter, the US studios announced that they would not abide by this settlement, even though it had been agreed to by their bargaining agent – the CFTPA.
- ACTRA is in negotiations to find a way around this impasse.
- ACTRA is cautiously optimistic that these matters will be resolved very soon.
Meanwhile, however, the strike continues. Any work done by ACTRA members under the IPA must be for producers who have signed interim agreements. Please note that as of this writing, Trailer Park Boys had not signed such an agreement – so performers must not show up for ADR work until further notice.
