The unanimous unionization of Walt Disney Pictures’ VFX workers, in addition to the similarly unanimous election of Marvel Studio’s VFX workers last month, is part of an ongoing wave of organizing throughout the entertainment industry, with workers across several previously unrepresented classifications rallying to unite under IATSE. From IATSE VFX Organizer Mark Patch: “Today’s unanimous victory shows that VFX workers everywhere have a clear path to winning a meaningful say about their working conditions and quality of life. We’ll be continuing our work to win a great contract, but we need to bring every studio and vendor in line to bring those union standards to all VFX workers.”
