Share via

SAG-AFTRA, the union representing Hollywood actors and other performers, has struck a deal with the major studios on new contracts covering animated production.

After four days of negotiations, SAG-AFTRA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers said they had reached agreements on new contracts for television animation.

The terms of the deals will be presented to the SAG-AFTRA National Board of Directors on Oct. 12, the groups said in a joint statement.

Contract terms were not disclosed. The agreements are expected to be modeled on a master contract covering movies and prime-time TV that was approved by members in August.

That contract included modest pay rate hikes and a slight increase in contributions that producers will make to the union’s pension and health plans. SAG-AFTRA is Hollywood’s largest union with more than 165,000 members.
