https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557317867119-X48T9NE50Q8CCHEK2YXP/white-square-300x300.jpg FAQ - 1. What is the main benefit to joining a union? You are investing with fellow VFX professionals in order to take advantage of pre-existing legal processes that are meant to help us establish and maintain a UK VFX industry that is a sustainable long term career choice, including advancing us towards a seat at the table as this industry inevitably evolves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557318074670-IBNRFE3WDKD0G0WBT69J/white-square-300x300.jpg FAQ - 2. Will members benefit from any immediate results after joining the union? You are investing with fellow VFX professionals in order to take advantage of pre-existing legal processes that are meant to help us establish and maintain a UK VFX industry that is a sustainable long term career choice, including advancing us towards a seat at the table as this industry inevitably evolves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557318275129-TA6X3BU28KC9QC10LPNK/white-square-300x300.resized.jpg FAQ - 3. Once a union has been assembled, how quickly will union members experience actual change? Achieving union 'recognition' at a given VFX studio means that we are a collective bargaining unit. A collective bargaining unit is legally allowed to immediately negotiate with the VFX studio on any terms that we as a group can democratically agree on, for example if we agreed on it, we could immediately negotiate with the studio that all contracts shorter than 6 months receive higher rates. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557323815237-YRBWRX3TJ5GZHCV4R7KH/white-square-300x300.resized.jpg FAQ - 4. Does being in a union mean that there are strict rules as to what artists can be paid (i.e. are there any caps on pay for certain roles) No. The only strict rules are that any terms that we as a group can democratically agree on, are terms that we can then have BECTU negotiate for us with the studio. A strict pay cap or the like could only ever be instituted if a majority of the workforce voted in favour of it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557323899901-BP05SXB2N17ATWU64GYS/white-square-300x300.jpg FAQ - 5. Might a union enforce strikes on the workers, potentially alienating the artists from the studios? Strikes are the last port of call, and the UK government has made them increasingly difficult to organise at this point. It is highly unlikely to that we would ever have a strike, and again this would only come about if the majority of workers agreed to this course of action. That being said, strikes are still an important tool and source of power for all trade unions, so while highly unlikely these are not something we inherently rule out as they give teeth to our position at the negotiation table. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557323975055-O7UDOJY84MZI6JXRTJ5Y/white-square-300x300.jpg FAQ - 6. If we succeed in getting paid for overtime, this would make the work more expensive. Might this put off production companies from coming to the UK instead of opting for other countries? It's actually not true that the work would be more expensive if there were paid overtime, because there are numerous studies (eyes wide shut?) that show strong evidence for a more productive workforce when the number of hours in the workday are reduced. Having paid overtime would also ensure the enforcement of mandatory consequences in the face of poor planning on behalf of production and management, creating strong motivational factors for improved planning and accountability for the way projects are run. Lastly, you need only to look at countries where paid overtime is required by law, for example Canada, for proof that large numbers of VFX studios can operate successfully with paid overtime. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557324058387-27E5WSQEIS5GFKLM8SOA/white-square-300x300.jpg FAQ - 7. VFX is mainly computer-based work, so is there a higher chance that the VFX union would move to a different country because it's "more transportable" than other areas of the industry? A union will not change the fact that work may or may not get outsourced overseas. The outsourcing of work will inevitably happen no matter whether we have a union or not, as the development of automation and/or the growing ability for overseas markets to take on the execution of more kinds of VFX tasks is not contingent on unionisation. The existence of a union actually provides the opportunity for the UK VFX industry to be have a healthier workforce if we can achieve more sustainable working hours. A healthier UK workforce will ultimately be more capable of competing at a higher level than an over-worked overseas workforce, creating an added value for having VFX work done in the UK. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1557324416291-688BOR8YB4KFC3W3U8BX/white-square-300x300.resized.jpg FAQ - 8. How much of a say do the union members have in the decisions taken by the union? For example, would there be a democracy-based decision making process? Yes, union decisions are made democratically. Additionally, the general workforce at a given UK VFX studio currently enjoys far less of a say in the decisions that affect their work life balance, while a union would provide the general workforce with an actual seat at the table. https://www.animvfxunion.com/new-page-22 daily 0.75 2019-05-08 https://www.animvfxunion.com/contact daily 0.75 2023-10-03 https://www.animvfxunion.com/benefits daily 0.75 2019-05-08 https://www.animvfxunion.com/courses daily 0.75 2019-05-08 https://www.animvfxunion.com/about daily 0.75 2023-08-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1572972122685-WD44QBL3JM7I7VAS87U4/GettyImages-846843344.jpg About the VFX Union https://www.animvfxunion.com/legal-advice daily 0.75 2019-05-08 https://www.animvfxunion.com/assembling-the-union daily 0.75 2019-05-08 https://www.animvfxunion.com/faqs daily 0.75 2020-04-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1559581744135-B8J7IE7Q88GTYL79ARAS/bg.jpg faqs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191818895-Z08P6KY5310FMLTTC5ZB/greenstrip.jpg faqs - WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF JOINING A UNION? Your membership also provides access to free legal advice and practical assistance if things go wrong for you at work. You can also get guidance on tax and contract law. But there is something much bigger than that. By joining the union you are strengthening the only organisation that is working to make the industry better for the people who work in it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191911874-17RP79UNLPMGKV2S3KX4/greenstrip.jpg faqs - DOES BEING IN A UNION MEAN THAT THERE ARE STRICT RULES AS TO WHAT ARTISTS CAN BE PAID? (I.E. ARE THERE ANY CAPS ON PAY FOR CERTAIN ROLES?) No. All union policies are made democratically which means a pay cap would never be called for unless it were agreed by the majority of members in the bargaining unit – and BECTU members have never indicated any interest in pressing for any pay caps. The union would press for minimum professional industry rates for low- paid workers though. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191976482-GWJRH3CBSDIRSAW46B91/greenstrip.jpg faqs - IF WE SUCCEEDED IN GETTING PAID OVERTIME WOULDN'T IT DAMAGE THE UK ANIMATION AND VFX INDUSTRY? Almost every other high-tech industry recognises that long hours working is counterproductive. It actually reduces productivity and damages the quality of work. Overtime penalties are designed to encourage employers to plan and schedule more effectively. BECTU only wants Overtime payments as a deterrent to bad management practices. They are a win-win for both employer and employee. Canada is a great example of a country with a flourishing VFX industry where overtime penalty payments are legally required. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562192020040-DR65XXPYIP5PXG4UM5PB/greenstrip.jpg faqs - HOW MUCH OF A SAY DO WE HAVE IN UNION DECISIONS? ARE THERE DEMOCRATIC DECISION-MAKING PROCESSES? Yes. Unions only ever make decisions democratically. By contrast, VFX artists working in studios without an active union currently have very little influence over decisions directly affecting their working life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191847388-582G5CO0ND971JR4F166/greenstrip.jpg faqs - WHAT IMMEDIATE RESULTS CAN I EXPECT IF I JOIN? As soon as you join the union you qualify for assistance in any new workplace problems you have. You can also take advantage of financial and legal advice services, along with several discounts and educational opportunities. Long-term however, the rewards are more fulfilling. Ultimately we are aiming to improve pay, reduce working hours and improve job opportunities. We can only do this by sticking together. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191945649-DFDX7I2BM2KZDDE8SMU4/greenstrip.jpg faqs - MIGHT A UNION CALL STRIKES, POTENTIALLY ALIENATING THE ARTISTS FROM THE STUDIOS? BECTU is a democratic union. There has never been any inclination to use strikes as a tool to challenge the employers in the VFX industry. Our members would never support it unless the employers have behaved outrageously. The threat of some limited industrial action (e.g. a collective refusal to work overtime) can sometimes strengthen negotiations, but we would only consider balloting for this kind of action in the last resort – and it would involve getting over all kinds of legal hurdles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c3b620496d455254a89f511/1562191990657-3CTHDINN7AAMUTQZGGJ2/greenstrip.jpg faqs - COULD ANIMATION AND VFX UNION SUCCESSES RESULT IN WORK THAT IS DONE IN THE UK GOING ABROAD? It is a mistake for professional artists to get involved in a ‘race to the bottom’ and unionising in the UK will have no negative impact on how work is outsourced to other countries. The logic of an industry that is becoming more automated is that low-grade work goes to developing countries while high-quality work continues to be done in the places that are best at retaining and cultivating talent. Unionising the UK VFX workforce makes it more likely that UK facilities will be able to keep high-quality work. By working more sustainably, the UK workforce will not keep losing the best artists. Strong unions can apply pressure to employers to train their employees, future proofing their careers – but only in the countries where the unions are strong.
