About the event
The vote to ratify the tentative agreement reached between TAG and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) is currently scheduled to take place sometime between Dec. 10 and 22, 2024. It's important that every member takes part. Not voting means your voice will not be heard in the ratification process, so please vote and encourage your colleagues to do so, too.
If you are currently on Withdrawal or Suspended, in order to vote you must reinstate and pay any accompanying fees and dues that are required by Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2024, at 5 p.m. We need to provide the vendor who will be conducting the vote with a complete list of eligible voters on Dec. 5, 2024, so they can send a test email ahead of the voting window. Once you are reinstated, you will become an Active member.
Note that in order to be an Active member in Good Standing:
You must completely pay the application fee and all dues, initiation fees, and assessments so that no monies are owed to The Animation Guild.
You must complete and return the paper membership application form to The Animation Guild. The form will be processed by the Guild office and sent to our parent union, the IATSE office in New York.
The IATSE office in New York must approve the application and send it back to the Guild office. (Please note this can take 30 days.)
Once all dues and fees are paid, and all membership application processing is completed by both offices, individuals become members in good standing.
If you never submitted your application after paying your intiation fee, you are not be an Active Member in Good Standing until you do so and it's approved bu the IATSE.
For members on Withdrawal or Suspended, please email membership@tag839.org and request to be reinstated and added to the voting list.
