The entertainment industry has been shaken by the ongoing Writers Guild strike and further threats of a labor strike from SAG-AFTRA members. Meanwhile, the Directors Guild of America's (DGA) negotiated with the AMPTP beginning on May 10, and ending on June 3 when the Guild reached a tentative agreement with the producers. The final date for members to ratify or reject the contract for is today, June 23.

The film and television industry has made significant strides for the labor rights and equitable treatment of actors since its earliest days. However, it is crucial to acknowledge that the industry has not always prioritized the well-being of its performers. Within this context, the formation of the Screen Actors Guild becomes particularly noteworthy.

As film and television professionals, it is crucial for assistant directors (ADs), unit production managers (UPMs), and producers to have reliable and efficient scheduling software to help manage our increasingly complex production ecosystem. With the growing prevalence of crossboarded shoots (filming multiple episodes or films concurrently), virtual production, tandem and second units, we are in dire need of film and TV scheduling software that works how AD teams work. While single-user scheduling software like Movie Magic Scheduling may have worked in the past, it is beyond time for ADs, UPMs, and producers to consider transitioning to a multi-user, cloud-based scheduling software like Cinapse.
