Dropout is back in production. đŤĄ
Details below. đ As I mentioned, Dropout is not associated with the AMPTP, who negotiates on behalf of the majority of studios and streamers.
But truthfully, thereâs no such thing as a âstruck company.â There are instead âstruck contractsâ and ânot-struck contracts.â We assumed Dropoutâs contract - the New Media Agreement for Non-Dramatic Programming - was struck because it wasnât specifically on a list of non-struck contracts.
After speaking at length with our lawyers and with SAG, turns out that is not the case. So, Dropout can return to business as usual.
And because our shows were never struck, talent can go back to promoting their Dropout appearances. đ SAGâs decisions are in part strategic.
Small streamers like us continuing to work while the major streamers cannot gives us a competitive advantage and puts more pressure on them to make a deal. đ But make no mistake about it: We continue to support our striking performers and their cause.
- Between Dropout and me personally, we have donated $20,000 to the Entertainment Community Fund. - If anyone doesnât feel comfortable working with us or promoting their work during the strike for whatever reason, we respect that position. - While we already pay above minimums, we will continue to go above and beyond to reward and protect our performers *and* crew members, and plan to put even more of our money where our mouth is before the end of the year. Dropout fans, thank you for your support and solidarity during this uncertain time.
Keep supporting the Entertainment Community Fund - - as well as the pet projects of your favorite creators.
And with that, itâs back to work. âď¸
