Over seven months since declaring a strike, SAG-AFTRA video game performers braved the L.A. rain for their first picket of the year. The demonstration took place outside the offices of WB Games, where actors and supporters gathered to voice their demands for fair compensation and working conditions in the gaming industry.
The performers expressed their determination to continue the fight for better pay and benefits, with many holding signs that read, “We are still fighting!” The strike, which has garnered attention across the entertainment sector, highlights the challenges faced by voice actors and motion capture performers, who argue that their contributions to video games deserve greater recognition and remuneration.
As the rain poured down, the spirits of the participants remained high, showcasing their solidarity and commitment to the cause. With negotiations still ongoing, these performers are hopeful that their efforts will lead to a resolution that acknowledges their vital role in the gaming landscape.
