WGA Strike Explained: The Issues, The Stakes, Movies & TV Shows Affected — And How Long It Might Last
“So when I started directing television, the world was very different,” Paris Barclay, former DGA president and currently the guild’s secretary-treasurer, says in the video. “You would actually direct a television show; it would appear once; you’d be paid; it would repeat again and you’d be paid again substantially, actually. And you continue on down the line. When those repeats diminished because streaming took over, we started losing value.
“One of the magic things about residuals is it keeps us going in tough times,” he continued. “It keeps our families going, and it’s a lifeline that continues the investment we’ve made in each project. So our feeling is that it’s super important, and more important than ever, that as the world grows into a streaming model, that we participate both financially and actually creatively in the work that’s done.
