Back by popular demand, we have members of the Hollywood Teamsters Local 399 —this time from the Casting Department. Teamsters Local 399 and their New York counterparts in Teamsters Local 817 began contract negotiating with the studios on August 26th for Casting Directors, Associate Casting Directors, and newly organized Casting Assistants. Host and WGAW member Andra Whipple sits down with two iconic Casting Directors and Teamster negotiating committee members Allison Jones and Sherry Thomas to discuss some of the challenges they are up against. Learn more about the Casting Directors campaign and how you can support them in their campaign toolkit.
