The London Coordinating Committee (LCC) was established in 2007. With more than 375 DGA members in the UK and Ireland, the Guild recognized the need to create a coordinating committee in the same way it already has with similarly-sized populations of DGA members in San Francisco and Chicago. In addition to supporting economic and creative protections for members, the LCC hosts seminars, screenings and other events.
