Establishing

Creative

Rights

April 2025 marks 62 years since the Guild published the first "Bill of Creative Rights" for Directors. In this article from the Spring 2011 issue of DGA Quarterly, revisit the story of how this came about after Director Elliot Silverstein challenged how his episode of The Twilight Zone, "The Obsolete Man," was edited.

Directors TJ Asprea, Marc Greenstein, Geoff Hoffmann, Kara Kennedy, Jason Martinez and Philip Williamson shared their insights into how it all comes together during a discussion moderated by DGA Sixth Vice-President Lily Olszewski.

The DGA membership meeting in Atlanta, GA provided an opportunity for members to network with their peers, meet staff and hear what the Guild is doing to protect and extend their creative and economic rights.

New effort, established in partnership with the Motion Picture Television Fund, will provide immediate financial assistance to DGA members affected by recent wildfires.

As part of the Guild’s ongoing efforts to elevate the importance of safety in your workplaces, the 2023-2026 Basic Agreement (BA) and Freelance Live and Tape Television Agreement (FLTTA) include requirements for DGA employees to complete additional training courses.
