Production positions such as PAs, showrunners, etc DO NOT MAKE UNION WAGES! They work ungodly amounts of unpaid overtime and are constantly running around, trying to make sure us artists have everything we need. THEY ARE THE BACKBONE OF EVERY SINGLE SHOW

Production at Titmouse over in New York was included in that studio branch’s unionization efforts, and this was the FIRST time production has EVER been union. That was the first step at breaking the ice…

… meanwhile, production over here in LA at Titmouse are NOT union. What Green Portal is doing is GROUNDBREAKING for production staff in Los Angeles. We can crack this baby wide open! So, how do you show support?

USE THESE HASHTAGS!!!
