#TaylorSwift made her #ErasTour movie mid-strike by doing everything Hollywood won’t— actually meeting unions’ demands. She reportedly met all #SAGAFTRA's requirements to film and produce what will most likely become the top-grossing tour film of all time.
The pop star's team worked around the major studios represented by the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers in the ongoing labor negotiations. The movie was self-funded, with Swift allegedly spending $10 to $20 million to produce it and her parents working directly with AMC Theaters on distribution.
Additionally, Swift approached SAG-AFTRA to reach an interim agreement to shoot and promote the film. She evidently received permission since her documentary isn't a dramatic film, and she adhered to demands like higher salaries for crew members and more generous streaming residuals.
