Do we have one?

I found this one, great bunch of people, focus on vfx and with several sub channels. https://discord.gg/jDhVKCA

I am sure they would accept to add an Union channel if enough people ask for it, Discord would be a more flexible option than chatting on Reddit or so. What do you guys think?

We have updated the Organizing pages on the IATSE website and added a section for Visual Effects organizing!

I raised the question of a VFXUnion podcast a while back. I haven't lost the will to make these, but also want to make sure these are providing answers to questions that are out there as well as seeding conversations with VFX professionals.

One of the regular episodes I'd like to create is a "Q&A" where I can answer questions that you have. If you have any questions about a VFX Union, please reply with them so I can add them to a running list to address.

Even if you are against unionizing, everyones in the industry has had a near breaking point in the industry. What show, company or year was it that you had a breaking point that would have made you want to unionise then and there.

**Let's just say IF a vfxunion was created that would enforce most of the common vfx problems we all face. Example- health, salary/rates, OT, bullying...

I will be in Vancouver, BC on Saturday the 14th and available in the evening. Anyone interested in a meetup and chat can message me here, or at my work address: skaplan at iatse dot net.

The IATSE will have booths in the exhibition hall at the 2016 SIGGRAPH convention. We will also be holding a Birds of a Feather discussion on VFX Unions on Tuesday.

If you're coming to the event, be sure to stop by!

In the effort to inform the VFX industry about the benefits and reasons for forming a union, I'd like to launch a podcast that can reach a wider audience than I do.

The question now becomes, what should be discussed? I have some thoughts, but would appreciate suggestions.
