If the standard is really to protect actors’ rights and pay, shouldn’t the union be more proactive about making room for these studios and negotiating for higher standards across all projects, rather than focusing on strictly enforcing “no non-union work” policies?

If so much of the industry is non-union, shouldn’t the union adapt to these conditions rather than have stricter rules around working for non-union studios?

I get the argument about actors doing non-union gigs to build their name, and it’s definitely true that conventions play a big role in a lot of VAs’ income. But what I don’t fully understand is why SAG-AFTRA doesn’t have a more consistent policy or structure around non-union work.

I did wanna start by saying that my criticisms of what some VAs have said are from the information I gathered outside the fandom. I just point out things I disagree or don't make sense, I myself left the community because its a toxic cesspit in general, I hate it.

With things like Infinity Nikki, from what I gathered they prioritized union dubbing hence the contract. That being said, Hoyoverse has been doing non-union deals from the start which is why I ask, why did Sag allow Union workers to go to Hoyo when its frowned upon to do so?

THANK YOU, THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR

The other problem I've had with the Sag Aftra situation is that because of Chinese laws Mihoyo cannot even join the Union. So this strike also isn't gonna lead anywhere except to recasts
April 26, 2025 at 10:41 PM
Funny you assume I don't hold a job lol. I get that it was bound to happen that Sag Aftra was not gonna play nice when Union VAs worked for Genshin. But I do believe threatening the VAs isn't helping their case either

How is doing my own research bad exactly? I care about the working class because I know what its like to be in the working class. Maybe not VA level, but I also have bills to pay especially in University. If I didn't care about the working class I'd be flaming Erika for complaining about the threats

Debunked? They've been proven right by several sources which I myself looked into. Explain how they're "debunked" then

Read the interim yourself. This isn't about AI anymore. And also, Chinese law already has anti AI laws in place for Mihoyo so why keep striking? They pay the VAs Union wage too so it can't be that either. If anything non union VAs get screwed over the hardest. Literally READ THE INTERIM

I don't play Genshin anymore. Jacob was never rude to anyone and if there was a statement made I didn't see please show me. Most EN VAs started this fight, not the fanbase. If anything the fandom went after Jacob first before they realized the VAs spinned the narrative
April 26, 2025 at 10:16 PM
They're a hypocrite and I'm simply pointing that out. Sag-Aftra has shown to be scummy already and that is something the majority does not tolerate. They've also been rude to Kinich's new VA when they don't even work in the US to begin with.
April 26, 2025 at 10:12 PM
And before I forget, why are you still voicing Paimon if you're so pro Sag then? Shouldn't you be standing in solidarity with your peers? Don't be a hypocrite either.
April 26, 2025 at 10:10 PM
Not to mention a lot of indie companies who did not want to sign the interim got BLACKLISTED by Sag. They even had anti AI clauses.
April 26, 2025 at 9:50 PM
This is funny coming from the same person who had an 8 minute long rant about why Sag was the only good option. This clearly shows how scummy Sag Aftra is and that's suddenly okay? Talk about lack of empathy

Armored Core 7 looking good guys
