SAG-AFTRA Picketing Disney Thursday

SAG-AFTRA announces another appointment picket line, saying on Thursday its voice actor strike against video game companies will come to the offices of Disney Character Voices in Burbank on Thursday at noon EDT (9:00 am local time). Here's word on hopes that this three hour demonstration will move the needle on negotiations over the use of AI voices in video games:
Calling on all 2023 Disney picketers, strike captains, members, and supporters! Join our SAG-AFTRA video game performers in solidarity for our strike which was called against all video game companies signed effective 12:01 a.m. on Friday, July 26.

SAG-AFTRA is striking this contract so that members working in interactive media (video games) can continue earning a living doing the job they love. Our members’ work and likenesses are being exploited by artificial intelligence, and video game companies have refused to offer a fair deal that addresses this existential threat.
