WHAT IS THE ALLIANCE OF MOTION
PICTURE AND TELEVISION PRODUCERS? (In the Entertainment industry.)
Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers?
Since 1982, the Alliance of Motion Picture and
Television Producers (AMPTP) has been the trade association responsible for
negotiating virtually all industry-wide guild and union contracts, including
those with American Federation of Musicians (AFM); Directors Guild of America
(DGA); International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE);
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW); Laborers Local 724;
Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists
(SAG-AFTRA); Teamsters, Local #399; and Writers Guild of America (WGA) among
others.
The AMPTP, the entertainment industry's official
collective bargaining representative, negotiates 58 industry-wide collective
bargaining agreements on behalf of hundreds of motion picture and television
producers.
The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television
Producers (AMPTP) is based in Sherman Oaks, California that represents over 350
American television and film production companies in collective bargaining
negotiations with entertainment industry trade unions that include, among
others, SAG-AFTRA, the Directors Guild of America, the Writers Guild of
America, West, the Writers Guild of America, East, the American Federation of
Musicians, and the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees.
The AMPTP was founded in 1924 as the Association of
Motion Picture Producers, or AMPP. According to The Film Encyclopedia, "it
was renamed the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers in 1964
to reflect its merger with the Alliance of Television Film Producers [founded
in 1951]. In 1975, two members of the Association, Paramount and Universal,
left to form a new organization, the Alliance. In 1982, the Alliance and AMPTP.
Merged to form the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers."
As the entertainment industry's official collective
bargaining representative, the AMPTP, like the Motion Picture Association of
America (MPAA), is a key trade association for major film and television
producers in the United States. The AMPTP currently negotiates 80 industry-wide
collective bargaining agreements on behalf of over 350 motion picture and
television producers. AMPTP member companies include the major motion picture
studios (including Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox,
Universal Pictures, Walt Disney Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures), the
principal broadcast television networks (including ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC),
certain cable television networks, and other independent film and television
production companies.
