As The Animation Guild resumes negotiations with studios, their mission for pay equity in the color designer profession emphasizes the longstanding issues of gender bias in the industry.
'Equal pay for equal paint!' is not just a rallying cry; it's a critical demand that highlights the need for equitable wages for historically underpaid color designers.
In July, costume designers successfully negotiated a pay increase, emphasizing the positive strides made towards addressing gender pay gaps in Hollywood's creative sectors.
Studios have raised the starting wage for color designers to $51.50 an hour, but this still leaves them significantly behind their male-dominated counterparts in animation roles.
