Guild Name Change Feedback

Insights on members’ opinions about renaming NZFVTG and future directions for the Guild.

But first, thanks heaps to all who responded to my invitati on to comment on the Guild’s name – whether or not we should change it, and if so, to what.

I had intended to publish in this issue a selection of responses culled from the eleven pages worth I’ve gathered so far; but exigencies of space – three major contributions have all ended up being three times the length anticipated (I’ve had to delay a few other already prepared pieces till our December issue) – and exigencies of time also – as I write, I’m less than 24 hours from climbing aboard a big metal bird to go shoot a doco in Berlin. So, my apologies – but given the responses so far, December’s will be a stimulating issue, I promise you!

However, as a taster: thus far responses are 35% in favour of keeping the present name, and 65% favour a change; of those 65%, roughly a half prefer Screen Association (of NZ), a third like Screen Crew Guild (of NZ), and a quarter have other suggestions.

Thanks again, and – Keep those thoughts coming in, to editor@nztecho.com!
