So let’s discuss this LBFO in detail and some of the discrepancies we’ve seen with some of the information being shared to the public, so that we can all come together and make properly informed decisions moving forward.

We believe it is in the best interest of all actors to support the SAG-AFTRA interactive strike. These are the actions we believe would be the most helpful to the community.

CODA is and has always been an actors advocacy group. It is pro-actor no matter where they are in their career and what their union status is. However, the AI threat to voiceover is an existential threat.

Thank you for this opportunity. Unfortunately, I'm unavailable for any video game projects that have not signed SAG-AFTRA's interim agreements or their Tiered Budget Agreement. Please reach out to interactive@sagaftra.org for help signing one of these agreements.

If you receive an SL6 audition and aren't sure how to respond, we recommend replying to the audition email with the following:

We cannot allow SL6 to drag this strike out. CODA strongly urges all actors to avoid auditioning for and working on SL6 projects, despite language that makes them sound safe to work.

SL6 makes video game strikes extremely inefficient and was the leading cause of the last video game strike in '16/'17 lasting nearly 18 months.

Let's be clear about what a strike is: a strike is a DELIBERATE DISRUPTION OF WORK.

SL6 projects contain NO PROTECTION FROM AI. They are the opposite of "safe-to-work."

These terms refer to projects that are "Side Letter 6" jobs (or SL6 for short.)

What is Side Letter 6? To be blunt, it's a serious flaw in the SAG-AFTRA video game contract that allows projects that have begun production before a strike was called to continue without disruption.

To the game actors reading this:
As auditions for video games continue to come in, you're going to see some interesting language describing them.
Be on the lookout for terms like "grandfathered in" or "safe-to-work" or "safe harbor guidelines" or "non-struck."

In this town hall, they'll explain what the union is doing to protect actors from exploitation by AI and what you can do to secure a future for all game performers. Register here by 8/1 at 3 PM PDT: forms.gle/rDKMx1zCs48E...

This event is primarily directed towards character work (dubbing, animation, interactive, etc). While the event is in a panel-format, discussion is encouraged.
