SAG-AFTRA CONTINUES ITS COMMITMENT TO
making both SAG Awards
®
For Your Consideration
(FYC) screeners and the 30th Annual SAG Awards
livestream on Netflix as accessible as possible to everyone.
The union requires studios provide accessible FYC digital
screeners during the final phase of voting, with either closed
captioning (CC) or subtitles for those who are deaf and hard
of hearing (SDH), and audio description (AD) for those who
are blind and low vision, where you can hear the action
happening on the screen between the dialogue — it's like
turning an FYC screener into an audiobook!
Digital screeners became available to eligible
voting members starting on Wednesday, Jan. 17,
when SAG Awards voting opened.
The Netflix livestream of the 30th annual
ceremony on Saturday, Feb. 24, will also feature
closed captioning and live audio description.
