The Voice Behind Episode 68 – Strike! Pt. 2

And now for something a little more serious-er. 

You may have seen or heard something recently about SAG-AFTRA’s recent (and ongoing) vote for strike authorization in response to negotiations surrounding video game voice actors. The union (which represents both on-screen and voice actors) provided a pretty thorough summary on their website, but we wanted to get a more in-depth perspective on the issue. With that in mind, this week we’ve got JB Blanc (union) and Fryda Wolff (non-union) to talk about what all is going on and why you may want to pay attention.

Part 2 focuses on the actor’s side of things, included the much kvetched “residual” issue. Part 1 can be found here.
