The M. P. S. C. Local 839 IATSE, the labor union for screen
cartoonists and CGI artists and technicians in southern California,
has updated their AWN site with more up-to-date information about
labor union contracts, and with the June 2000 edition of their
newsletter, "The Peg-Board."
The contract information can be found at

In addition to the Local 839 contract, the website now features:
The IATSE's contract with The Secret Lab (TSL), formerly DreamQuest;
IATSE Local 16 and 600's contract with Industrial Light & Magic (ILM)
in San Francisco; and coming soon, IATSE Local 843's contract with
Walt Disney Feature Animation Florida in Orlando. With this
information, you will be able to compare and contrast conditions at
the various union shops serviced by units of the IATSE, Local 839's
parent organization.
