WGAE Embraced Digital Media in '09

The Writers Guild of America, East finished 2009 having paved new in-roads into representation of digital media and its writers.

Throughout 2009, the WGAE added 22 digital media companies, and 30 writers have become guild members as a result of digital media work covered by guild contracts. Among the new signatories are the Web series 9am Meeting, the Brooklyn-based production company AGBK, the animated Web series Confirmed Bachelors and the production company Jamtown Films.

“The business models, distribution structures, and creative opportunities in digital media are still being developed,” said WGAE executive director Lowell Peterson.
