Actors in the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists went on strike Thursday after contract negotiations with the production companies, studios and streaming services that employ them fell through.
The horror-comedy television series Reginald the Vampire just wrapped production in Victoria, leaving a bulk of the local production crew currently out of work. Approximately 300 production workers in Victoria are full-time, relying entirely on the industry for their income, while another 200 or so are part-time workers with other employment, Gilbert said.
