This past weekend some of our members hosted a panel with @PaffNow! The African American Steering Committee on Post Production had a discussion with some of the most successful film production professionals in the business. It was definitely an event you had to be there for. 😍 Thanks @anedra_the_editor for this amazing photo alongside @biggamejamez2 @leandersales #AimeeJennings & #BobbiBanks!

Motion picture editorial employees of Bento Box En

Motion picture editorial employees of Bento Box Entertainment, an animation studio owned by Fox, have overwhelmingly elected to unionize with the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) and its post-production local, the Motion Picture Editors Guild. Bento Box has agreed to recognize the editors’ union after an arbitrator verified that a majority of the employees had signed union authorization cards.

Under card-check agreements, employers agree to honor a union’s majority status on the basis of an independent third party’s confirmation that a majority of the employees have signed statements officially authorizing the union to represent them. After the workers secure union recognition through card-check, the parties begin negotiations on a first union contract.

Come celebrate International Workers Day with our

Come celebrate International Workers Day with our union kin from throughout the L.A. labor movement! 🎉

Members of Local 700 will join the IATSE contingent to march alongside unions from all over L.A. County in celebration of May Day 2022.

The IATSE marchers will gather before the event outdoors in front of 301 West Olympic Boulevard between 10:00 AM and 10:30 AM on Sunday, May 1st. The rally will get underway at 11:00 AM with the march scheduled to start at noon.

(This is not a Local 700 event, so the Guild's COVID-19 safety protocols will not be in effect. We do, however, strongly encourage participants to be fully vaccinated, practice social distancing, and mask at this event.)
