Studio CreatiV: The Writings, poetry and musing of an Angry Man

Dear Hollywood executives,

You seem to be confused about who makes you your billions every year. That is why I am writing this-to… clear up a few things.

First of all, workers deserve to be paid enough to live on. Fast good employees or actors, doesn’t matter. They work for their livings, they deserve to be compensated adequately.

Now, I know what you want us to think—“these actors are rich and overpaid!! Let them die out!” And while that may be the thinking of the ignorant, it isn’t T R U E though.

Most of Hollywood’s talent are broke. They came there to LA—a cesspool where beautiful dreams die horrible deaths—for a chance to be a part of the industry. For every George Clooney, there are several hundred unknowns, several hundred cast as extras, several hundred who aren’t getting roles due to age.

And while you got the ignorant of the nation thinking they are laughing at spoiled Hollywood hacks, you conveniently forget to mention they’re all sabotaging themselves. What you never mention (except to your colleagues in the boardrooms) is that if this strike errs in your favor you will have no problem going after the rest of us. Because your lust for money is insatiable.

But the more you take from your own workers, the more you abuse us, the more we build our resolve. And when you end up with nowhere to run, when all your “friends” abandon you, we will remember how much you did to us. And we will return it a hundred fold.

AI will not keep you from us forever.

Sincerely,

We the workers
