Performers union SAG-AFTRA has made headway in securing better rights for video game actors as it enters a new partnership with Lightspeed LA.
The Tencent-owned developer signed the union’s Interiim Interactive Media Agreement, which offers, among other things, protection for actors concerned about the use of AI with their voice.
SAG-AFTRA members are currently on strike, with one of the chief concerns being that game studios will have actors record lines then use AI to modify or create new material rather than bringing the performers back in.
