Exclusive: A dozen smaller talent agencies have signed a statement of support for the WGA’s efforts “to eliminate conflicts of interest and properly align the incentives of agencies with their clients.” None of the agencies is a member of the Association of Talent Agents, which is locked in a do-or-die battle with the WGA over a new franchise agreement. This positions a lot of have-not agencies — they would not ordinarily be considered as the reps of top screenwriters or TV writers — to be alternative landing places if the WGA follows through with its threat to force members to fire their agents at the Big Four percenteries.
The agencies that signed the statement are:
Above the Line Agency
Annette Van Duren Agency
Avail Talent
Bicoastal Talent and Literary
Claire Best & Associates
Greene & Associates Talent Agency
Gregory David Mayo Rep Performing Arts
Justin Ptak Agency
McHugo Artists Agency, Ltd.
Murtha Skouras Agency...
