AFTRA Talent Takes Videogames to the Next Level

Six of the top 10 videogames in 2006 were produced under the Interactive Media Agreement from AFTRA—the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists—a national union representing over 70,000 professional performers, broadcasters, and recording artists in 32 Locals throughout the country. Experienced professional AFTRA performers improve the efficiency of production and quality of the final product. It’s easy to produce videogames using the AFTRA Interactive Media Agreement as staff members can answer questions and facilitate talent needs.
