The latest enhanced digital issue of SAG-AFTRA magazine takes a look at the new protections for self-tapes in the 2022 Commercials Contacts, the union’s work at the 29th AFL-CIO Convention and at the rise of AI technology. 

SAG Awards® recipient Ariana DeBose takes center stage in this issue. SAG-AFTRA talks to DeBose about her stellar 2022 award season, what’s coming next and how she authentically approaches her work and activism. 

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg! Summer’s marked an increased effort from members far and wide to address important issues, including voting rights, gun safety reform and reproductive rights. We highlight our union members who are taking action, as well as the SAG-AFTRA delegation’s work at the 29th AFL-CIO Convention in Philadelphia — and across the country. 

SAG-AFTRA members voted to ratify the 2022 Commercials Contracts, which contain new provisions for commercial work. We provide an overview into these new protections and pro-tips on self-tapes. 

In our summer 2018 magazine, SAG-AFTRA took a close look at then-newly emerging AI technology in the industry. Since that time, the use of motion capture technology, CGI and other effects have only grown, and with it, new opportunities, challenges and risks for performers. Here’s the update and how SAG-AFTRA is working to further protect members. 

All this, plus the latest news and updates, industry highlights and new deals and discounts are waiting in the new SAG-AFTRA summer issue. Click here to get started.
