The SAG strike is not complicated, no matter how much misinformation you read or spread.

If you are non-union/Fi-Core, withholding work on NU projects displays solidarity in the fight for AI protections.

To do so places your role at risk, sure. But people will remember that you stood your ground.

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY. Get it memorized. NU "AI Protections" are weak and are at YOUR expense. Get with it! It's CHEAP AS FREE!

I've sued people. It is NOT cheap and you may not get your money back. Unenforceable protections is a risk on top of a risk on top of a Jenga-tower of risks.
There are many contracts out there with AI protections, but only SAG Interim & Tiered Budget Contracts provide actors with a legal team to enforce the contract at no cost. Legal fees are expensive, and many actors would have to go into debt to enforce our own contracts if they were violated.

The more you know, the more confidently you can advocate for yourself. As AI and synthetic voice technology evolve, familiarizing yourself with key terms and their implications is more important than ever. Stay informed by exploring VOICE ACTOR RESOURCES on Navavoices.org under Synthetic/AI Voices.

VERY FUN NEWS! ✨

SAG-AFTRA's Game Jam Waiver is now publicly available!!

There's no way I can fit absolutely everything I want to say about it in 300 characters—both about how to use the waiver/why it's so neat + how absurdly grateful I am to the folks who helped make it a thing—but it's SO cool.

Using AI to copy older games is not game preservation.
Chatted with Dom Matthews from Ninja Theory and Katja Hofmann from Microsoft Research about our AI model, Muse, which creates interactive gameplay that reacts to player input. It offers great opportunities and potential for creators and players. Full chat on Xbox Wire. aka.ms/AAui5mf

For those unaware, SAG-AFTRA is entering it's 7th straight month of striking interactive projects for enforceable AI rights. SAG-AFTRA contracts are protected by their legal staff--I can't afford a lawyer without the union.

I am only working on projects signed to a SAG-AFTRA INTERIM AGREEMENT.
It's possible you may hear me get recast in a particular game that is very popular. If I am, it was not because I stepped away from the character willingly. :) It's because the employer refused to flip to an interim.
