We turn up the heat with an interview with award-winning actor Ariana DeBose, a look into the new 2022 Commercials Contracts provisions and a deep-dive into deepfakes.

The latest digital issue of SAG-AFTRA magazine takes a look at the new protections for self-taping in 2022 Commercials Contacts, the union's work at the 29th AFL-CIO Convention and a new look at the rise of AI technology.

SAG Awards® recipient Ariana DeBose talks center stage in this issue. SAG-AFTRA talks to DeBose about her stellar 2022 award season, what's coming next and how she approaches her work and activism authentically.

But that's just the tip of the iceberg! Summer's marked an increased effort from members far and wide to address important issues, including voting rights, gun reform and reproductive rights. We highlight our union members who are taking action, as well as the SAG-AFTRA delegation's work at the 29th AFL-CIO Convention in Philadelphia.

SAG-AFTRA members voted to ratify the 2022 Commercials Contracts, which contain new provisions for union commercial work. We provide an overview into these new protections and a refresher on self-taping.

In our Summer 2018 magazine issue, SAG-AFTRA took a close look at then-newly emerging AI technology in the industry. Since that time, the use of motion capture technology, CGI and other effects have only grown, and with it, new opportunities, challenges and risks for performers. We revisit this important conversation in this issue and discuss what to look out for and how SAG-AFTRA is working to further protect members.

All this, plus the latest news and updates, industry highlights and new deals and discounts are waiting in the new SAG-AFTRA magazine summer 2022 issue. Click here to get started.
