Disney VFX Workers Unionize for Better Conditions

Visual effects crews at Walt Disney Pictures have filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for an election to unionize, with over 80% of the in-house VFX crew members signing authorization cards. This follows the recent unionization of VFX crews at Marvel Studios. The unionizing workers are demanding fair compensation, healthcare, retirement benefits, and the same rights and protections as their unionized colleagues. A labor board election could take place in the next few weeks, and if the majority votes in favor of unionizing, the studio will be required to negotiate a contract with the workers.
