The Directors Guild’s tentative agreement with the studios for a new film and TV contract, reached late last night, eliminated the prospect of an unprecedented WGA, DGA and SAG-AFTRA three-guild st…
and SAG-AFTRA three-guild strike which would’ve paralyzed the film and TV industry. It also likely won’t bring the labor peace the studios and streamers are looking for. But it brings even more attention to the WGA, whose strike is in its second month.
The DGA deal, however, does not address one of the WGA’s core issues: staffing mandates for writers on episodic TV shows, which the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers has called a “quota” that is “incompatible with the creative nature of our industry.” The DGAfor various below-the-line members of the director’s team, including unit production managers, assistant directors and associate directors.
The two sides were very far apart on money issues. The WGA wants to see pay and benefits increased by $429 million over three years, but says that the studios only offered $86 million.In its deal, the DGA got annual pay raises of 5%-4%-3.5% over the life of the contract. That’s 13% compounded over three years. The DGA also got an additional 0.5% to fund a new parental leave benefit. The WGA won paid parental leave in 2020.
This too could be the template for an eventual deal with both the WGA and SAG-AFTRA. In its last proposal, the WGA says it sought to “regulate use of artificial intelligence on minimum basic agreement-covered projects. AI can’t write or rewrite literary material; can’t be used as source material; and MBA-covered material can’t be used to train AI.”
The DGA also made major gains in global streaming residuals, saying that it got “a 76% increase in foreign residuals for the largest platforms so that residuals for a one-hour episode will now be roughly $90,000 for the first three exhibition years.” This, it said, is based on a “new residual structure to pay foreign residuals.”
