SAG Awards 2024: A Celebration Amidst Industry Turmoil:
The 2024 Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards are a big change as the series will air on Netflix for the first time, allowing for a free presentation with colorful commentary from fans and the public. Despite the excitement, the event took place against the backdrop of the crisis in Hollywood, where the streaming revolution has led to labor disputes and financial crisis.
American actor and writer unions, represented by organizations such as SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild of America, have been on strike for 2023 to fight debt relief due to the rise of streaming platforms. The strike lasted 118 days, causing business to slow down and business owners to incur financial losses. But their efforts resulted in a historic contract in November that provided players with wages and increased wages, as well as protection against skill exploitation.
At the awards ceremony, former SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher and the star of the movie “The Nanny” praised the members of the organization for their solidarity during the struggle and praised their struggle to reach an agreement. At the same time, the proliferation of streaming services is disrupting traditional studios while also creating challenges for new entrants to the streaming industry. Major conglomerates like Disney and Paramount created their own platforms to compete with Netflix, but they faced financial problems and investor skepticism.
Amid job competition, entertainment pioneer Barbra Streisand received the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Lifetime Achievement Award. In her confessional, Streisand recalls her humble beginnings in Brooklyn, where, despite disappointment, she harbored dreams of Hollywood stardom. Her transformation from a girl with celluloid dreams to an icon of stage and screen is testimony to the power of determination and resilience in the face of adversity.
