Thought they were already unionising due to the recent VFX to be fair.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Marvel’s visual effects employees have voted in favor of joining a union in their fight for better pay, overtime compensation, more benefits and better treatment.

According to Vulture, a supermajority of the company’s 50 on-set VFX employees have filed a petition for an election with the National Labor Relations Board.

They’re hoping to join the Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE), which also represents hair and makeup artists, wardrobe, lighting and prop personnel, among other workers.

Because apparently, despite Marvel’s reliance on visual effects to make its universe(s), superheroes and supervillains look real on the big screen, its VFX artists aren’t represented by a union.

Several current and former VFX employees for the company previously spoke out about grueling schedules and breaking down under pressure while working on shows and movies for the studio.

Visual effects must become a sustainable and safe department for everyone who’s suffered far too long and for all newcomers who need to know they won’t be exploited."

I’m a bot and I’m open source!

I’m guessing the next Marvel film is gonna look like a mid-90s CGI-piece

As they should. Their working conditions sounded like garbage

The men in black are coming to liberate them from communism

I cannot wait for conservatives to blame the MCU’s next failure on the union. My only question is whether they’ll wait long enough for one actually made by unionized employees or if they’ll just take whatever flops next, facts be damned.

I once had a dream of becoming a Hollywood VFX artist. What a bullshit dream that was.
