LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) – In a move which could carry massive implications, the union which represents tens of thousands of crew members in the Hollywood entertainment industry is one step closer to a strike.
The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) — which represents Hollywood TV and film workers like editors, camera operators, set designers, grips, electricians, make-up artists and graphic artists across the U.S. and Canada – announced Monday that it will move forward with a strike authorization vote.
