Get in the Mix. Help Shape What’s Next.
Your experience belongs at the table.
You know what it is really like out there.
You have worked the long days, solved the impossible problems, watched the industry change and probably thought more than once:
“There has to be a better way!”
This is your opportunity to help create it.
With the Screen Industry Guild’s 2026 AGM approaching, now is a great time for experienced members to consider getting more involved in the work of the Guild.
Joining your local SG committee and becoming an Officer of the Guild is an opportunity to bring your experience, ideas and industry knowledge to the table - and play an active role in shaping what comes next.
Bring your experience into the conversation
Guild Officers help ensure the organisation remains connected to the people it represents.
They bring regional knowledge, production experience, departmental perspectives and real-world understanding into discussions about the Guild’s priorities, activities and future direction.
Being involved gives you the opportunity to:
- Represent the experiences of crew in your region
- Contribute ideas for events, training and member initiatives
- Help identify the issues that matter most to working crew
- Build stronger connections across departments and productions
- Support emerging crew and the next generation of screen workers
- Gain leadership, advocacy and governance experience
- Learn more about the work happening on behalf of Guild members
- Help shape the direction of the Guild and the wider industry
You do not need to have all the answers or be the loudest person in the room.
You simply need industry experience, a constructive approach and an interest in helping the Guild continue to grow and deliver for its members.
From the floor to the table
Experienced crew bring an important perspective to Guild leadership.
You know the pressures of production, the realities of freelance work and the value of having a strong organisation behind the people who make screen productions happen.
Joining a local SG committee is a practical way to share that knowledge, contribute to useful conversations and help turn good ideas into meaningful action.
The Guild is at its strongest when members from across the industry get involved, bring different perspectives and take an active role in shaping what comes next.
Thinking about stepping up?
With the 2026 AGM approaching, now is the time to find out more about your local committee and the role of Guild Officers.
You know the industry.
You know the work.
Now bring that experience to the table.
Get in the mix and help shape what’s next.
