I Just Looked Back on the Pegboard from December 2018 to Refresh Myself on the Final Issue of What Was a Very Busy Year. This Y ANIMATION GUILD AND AFFILIATED ELECTRONIC AND GRAPHIC ARTS Los Angeles, California, December 2019 Vol. 48, No13 I just looked back on The Pegboard from December 2018 to refresh myself on the fi nal issue of what was a very busy year. This year was a little less hectic: with our main contract (the Master Agreement) settled, we only had four smaller contracts to work out with the major studios, plus a lot of individual deals. We did, however, get a lot done besides our usual collective baragining. Highlights include taking the biggest delegation in our Local’s history to the District 2 Convention in Hono- lulu, Hawai’i, holding an election for Offi cers and E-Board and seeing member engagement and committee participation take off like a rocket. My original intention for this article was to write about the outgoing and incoming Executive Board members, changes at the Guild over the last few years and some events to look forward to in 2020. A lot of little things have happened this week, though, that have reminded me about something very important: a union is made up of working people stand- ing together to make things better for themselves and others. I decided to throw out that fi rst article and start fresh with a little insight into what kind of stuff happens behind the scenes here at the Animation Guild. We just had an election that saw many members getting involved for the fi rst time. Our former Business Rep, Jason MacLeod, decided that a single incredibly productive three-year term was enough for a mere mor- tal, so he is off to a new phase of his career and we welcomed our former MEMBERS MAKE IT HAPPEN (continued on page 3) IN THIS ISSUE Members Make It Happen .......................................... 1 From the President .................................................. 4 Dues Increase ......................................................... 5 From the Business Representative .................................. 6 Women’s March IATSE Inter-Local Sign Making Event ......... 7 Member Perspective ................................................ 8 Five Ways to Get Involved ......................................... 9 California Labor Federation Pre-Primary Convention ......... 10 TAG at Comic Arts LA ............................................. 11 Get App Happy .....................................................12 FAM Committee Holiday Social ..................................17 Holiday Market Cheer and Funds for the IATSE PAC ......... 18 Member Party Is Moving in 2020 .......................20 In Memoriam/TAG Members at CNS Pop-Up Shop ............21 January Gallery Show ..............................................22 Upcoming Events at the Animation Guild ...................... 23 THE PEGBOARD is published monthly by The Animation Guild and Affi liated Optical Electronic and Graphic Arts IATSE Local 839, 1105 N.

Steve attended the California Labor Federation Pre-Primary Convention on December 11th and had this to say: “Acting as a delegate to the central labor council is an eye- opening experience. Usually, my focus is narrowed to the concerns of our members and the animation industry. Attending events like a COPE Convention, and the LA Fed’s House of Labor, helps me to expand my thinking and realize that organized labor, when acting together, is a pow- erful force. While I am proud to represent the interests of our members, I am honored to stand with other members of organized labor and use our power to make changes for the betterment of all working people.” Here are some other ways that individuals worked to make some pretty darn cool things happen – just in the last several days. Roger Oda wrote an opinion piece (p. 8) to say why he’s going to stay engaged after running for offi ce in the recent election. Jeanette Moreno King was sworn in as President after a very long and hectic day of travel from the other end of the country and she still had the energy to write her fi rst “From the President” piece for this newsletter (p. 4). Outgoing E-Board member Ashley Long organized a second Holiday Market, where talent- ed and crafty TAG members sold their wares (p.18). Over 100 members donated their Post-It Note artwork to raise $1500-plus for the IATSE PAC, which lobbies for workers rights and labor-friendly legislation in Washington, DC (p.19). Our Field Rep Leslie Simmons ran the fundrais- er, made several studio visits, coordinated TAG member participation at several events outside the Guild, attended meetings to share the exper- tise she gained working at other unions so that our Local can be more eff ective, and somehow also showed up at the COPE Convention (p. 10) and an IATSE Inter-Local Union Power event. Kris Mukai moderated a forum on Unionizing for Artists at Comic Arts LA (p. 11), then spread the word about a Game Workers Unite potluck to other TAG members (p. 23). Kristin Donner and Kyle Neswald brought families together at the FAM Committee Holiday Social (p. 17). Teri and Jack Cusumano prepared for an IATSE inter-Local signmaking event for the Women’s March in January. And as soon as I fi nish writing the next few sentences, I will have completed another issue of The Pegboard, which has been published since the early 1960s – this newsletter doesn’t write itself! It takes engaged members to run a labor union, and I’m thankful there are so many people working together to make ours a strong one. I hope you keep reading because there’s lots more good stuff to come in 2020! — Paula Spence, Pegboard Editor 3 My fi rst meeting as president didn’t start as I expected. I was late to the swearing in of the new Executive Board. My fl ight from Baltimore had been delayed a few hours and. with the added hour- long drive from LAX. guaranteed I was not going to make it in time to the Smokehouse in Burbank where, per tradition, the changing of the Board takes place. Texts were fl ying back and forth on how to proceed with the meeting. We fi nally decided that KC, the outgoing Guild Presi- dent, would wait to relinquish the chair until I arrived and would run the meeting until she and I could be sworn in to our new positions. WHEW. It was a packed fl ight with a harried crew with no patience for the whimpering 7-month-old Chihuahua mix I regretfully thought would be “fun” to travel with. A supervisor was waiting at the gate to inform me that this was going on our permanent record and the dog would be banned from any future fl ights. I tried my best to hide my glee and show contrition for this punishment. After a not so short shuttle ride to Lot E, my family and I, with our still whining puppy, jumped into our car and headed into rush hour traf- fi c. It was one of those days where taking surface streets had the same ETA as the highways – bad but it could’ve been much worse. When we arrived I felt pangs of guilt as I left my family with our audibly distressed pooch and headed into The Smokehouse. A cheer went up as I entered the meeting room. These are my people. The outgoing Board seated next to our incoming Board warmed my heart. Being in the company of these talented, motivated individuals who are willing to give of themselves for the greater good of our industry and members is a real privilege. To have been elected to lead such a fi ne group is truly humbling. They all make me work harder and expect more from myself. With food orders placed, I took control of the gavel. The conversation and exchange of ideas between outgoing and incoming Boards is stimu- lating to watch. I wish we could have one last meeting with both Boards. 4 There was much to discuss at this meeting and the new Board mem- bers, most of whom have already been actively participating on commit- tees and as shop stewards, were off and running.

This report responds to the request of the Senate Commerce Committee by focusing on advertising placement in popular teen media and disclosure of rating and labeling information in advertising. The report details commission findings indicating that the movie and electronic game industries have taken steps to better communicate rating information to parents, and that the game industry and a number of movie studios ave placed some specific limits on ad placements to avoid targeting youth. The music industry is beginning to include the parental advisory in advertising, but has not taken steps to limit advertising to children.

  • New Media Goes to the Movies: Digitizing the Theatrical Audience
    New Media Goes to the Movies: Digitizing the Theatrical Audience Published in Television & New Media, pp. 1-21, 2019, DOI: 10.1177/1527476429863131 Blake Hallinan1 and C.J. Reynolds2 Abstract Movie theaters typically appear adjacent to discussions of new media. Although there has been work on digital cinema, we shift the focus from the digitization of the medium to the digitization of the theatrical audience and analyze the movie theater as new media. To do so, we look at the historical and contemporary strategies for digitizing the theatrical audience of a prominent theater chain. We identify common media of digitization, including credit cards, computerized point-of-sale systems, and loyalty programs. The origins of these techniques and imperatives trace back to the 1970s and 1980s, even as they take on new forms today. We then analyze the industrial logics of audience digitization and emergent communication and data collection methods. Finally, we analyze the movie theater as a platform, showing both the relevance of movie theaters and the challenges their inclusion as an object of study poses for contemporary platform studies. Introduction In 1999, Variety published an article about the changes coming to theatrical distribution and exhibition with the dawn of a new “Digital Era,” which began with a speculative account of what the industry would look like in five years’ time: Using his computer keyboard and mouse, the president of top U.S. theater chain Regal/Loews-AMC books the upcoming weekend’s films into his circuit’s theaters. As he clicks on the titles (“Austin Powers 4: You Only Shag Twice,” “The Matrix III” and MGM’s long-awaited “Supernova”) the films begin downloading via satellite to the 1 University of Colorado Boulder, Boulder, USA 2 Independent Scholar Corresponding Author: Blake Hallinan, University of Colorado Boulder, Hellems 96 UCB 270, Boulder, CO 80303, USA Email: [email protected] 2 Television & New Media 00(0) circuit’s digital megaplexes around the globe.
