TELEVISION IS CHANGING SEMINAR IN LEEDS

Posted on September 11, 2008

7:00-9:00pm, Thursday 25 September, Golden Lion Hotel, 2 Lower Briggate

After the success at the seminars in Manchester and Liverpool we have decided to do another one in Leeds.  Join Equity members, producers, agents, casting directors and other industry professionals to discuss the rapidly changing world of television and new media. 

Join us at this interactive seminar open to Equity members, producers, agents, casting directors and other industry professionals designed to give you the opportunity to find out about the work that Equity has been doing in response to the expansion and development of new technology in the world of television production, broadcasting and throughout the entertainment industry. The key themes covered include:

TV IS CHANGING: The way actors work and are paid will change as a result of the revolution that is taking place in broadcasting. This campaign is part of Equity’s effort to provide you with the information you need to help you make informed choices about the implications of the coming changes.

PAN-INDUSTRY NEGOTIATIONS: Equity has been meeting with representatives of all the major broadcasters and independent producers in the British television industry with the goal of negotiating a pan-industry agreement that will bring together the best of the many individual deals that currently exist.

NEW MEDIA DEALS: Find out about the work the union has already done in areas such as mobisodes, podcasts, internet-only productions and games.
