Frequently asked questions
How does Orb work with IATSE crafts?
Hybrid productions that involve a real shoot use below-the-line crafts, and post-production crafts remain central on every project. Orb's posture is transparency about which roles a production uses and fair engagement of crew.
Does AI production mean no crew?
No. Fully AI-native work reduces on-set crafts tied to physical shoots, but editorial, sound, color, and finishing remain essential, and hybrid productions still use on-set crews.
Is Orb a union signatory?
Signatory status and the applicable agreements are confirmed per production and per the requirements of the work, rather than asserted in advance on this page.
