The Strike That Could Paralyze Hollywood
Manage episode 304580748 series 2463633
For as glamorous as Hollywood often seems, the workers behind the scenes rarely experience the star treatment. They do everything from sound design and makeup to cinematography and lighting, and they’ve had enough with the industry’s dizzying production pace and long hours that stretch into the early morning. Motivated by shifts in the industry due to the pandemic, workers from the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees union are gearing up for a strike that could halt movie and show productions alike.
Guest: Anousha Sakoui, entertainment industry writer for the Los Angeles Times.
