Where can Hollywood's cast and crew find work during the coronavirus crisis?

With Hollywood on hold, so are the livelihoods of thousands of workers who depend on the film and TV business that has halted during the coronavirus pandemic.Animation and interactive media have been a lifeline for some studios as other film and TV productions have halted. Notably, most members of the Animation Guild who were employed when the coronavirus hit, are still working, said Steve Kaplan, the union’s business representative.

“The animation industry is lucky,” Kaplan said. “Many jobs can be done effectively at home and so the transition has been relatively smooth, especially during a time of crisis when many studios had to scramble at the last moment to adjust to a new workflow.” Among those hiring is North Hollywood-based Bento Box Entertainment, known for its work on the Emmy winning TV series “Bob’s Burgers.” The firm employs more than 500 artists and production staff across its studios in Los Angeles, Atlanta and London. It is has openings for about 20 freelance production personnel.
