National screen technician members meeting

Meeting to consider the final offer of the template agreement to cover crew working on large scale international feature films.

MEAA screen technician members will meet nationally on Sunday, June 24 to consider a final offer from the six major studios for a template agreement to cover crew working on large scale international feature films. The new offer includes further improvements from the initial offer (detailed below).

The offshore negotiating committee, which is made up of 33 MEAA members who work in the offshore sector and was endorsed to progress the negotiations by members meetings on May 12, has met twice with studio representatives to press for improvements and get the best possible offer at the negotiating table.

The committee will report back on the negotiations and make a recommendation to members on whether or not to accept the offer at the meeting on June 24.

Only financial members will be able to attend the meeting and vote on whether or not to accept the offer and any other matters. Please RSVP to help expedite this process.
