AFTRA Covers Animation Too!

Posted July 22, 2009

“Working under an AFTRA contract guarantees you great pay, benefits, and residuals! Who doesn't love those!? So, when your fabulous voice is heard everywhere: radio, TV, Internet, iPod, cell phone, etc., AFTRA makes sure that if it's played, you get paid!”
                                                                                                — AFTRA member Lori Alan

Great rates

Who doesn’t love residuals?

When your programs are replayed, excerpted, or used elsewhere, you can earn money under the AFTRA Animation Agreement. AFTRA contracts can protect you from buy-outs—common in many non-union contracts—that may seem lucrative at the time, but over time cost you money as your voice is reused again and again and again… and you don’t see a dime!

Oh, yeah: health and retirement benefits too!

Just like the other AFTRA agreements, when you work under the AFTRA Animation Agreement, employers make contributions to your health plan and your pension.

So, when you’re hired to work in animation, make sure you get all the money and benefits you deserve as professional performer by working under the AFTRA Animation Agreement.
