Become an AWGACS member JOIN AWG The Australian Writers’ Guild continues to fight against unfair treatment of writers both for the writers’ sake and in support of a healthy industry. We are negotiating new industrial terms and conditions and have developed a new range of model contracts and minimum recommended terms and conditions. Our service for members ups the ante on contract negotiations and adherence. Solidarity is fundamental to winning these battles. Support the guild that works hard for you and your fellow writers, and call on our services to fight for what you are worth. In joining with other writing professionals, you will be contributing to the health of Australian performance writing culture and all its communities. Without the support and advice of the Guild over the past 60 years, many successful writers would never have had the chance to develop the careers they now cherish. Australia’s most prominent writers are long-serving members of the Australian Writers’ Guild. Under maintinence, be back soon! JOIN NZWG NZWG was founded in 1976 and is the professional membership association and registered trade union of Aotearoa New Zealand script writers. NZWG is committed to working in a way that adheres to the spirit and principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi. NZWG is a member of the International Affiliation of Writers Guilds (IAWG), Council of Trade Unions (CTU NZ) and WeCreate. New Zealand Writers Guild (NZWG) screenwriters cannot be categorised as one homogenous group; they are communities of talented workers who live all over Aotearoa. They are a mix of ages, backgrounds, and experience levels – from students, emerging through to experienced career professionals whose living is made on the creation of ideas inked onto pages. These screenwriters’ ideas are formed in many ways, from pure imagination, to lived experiences and inspiration from many other sources. The primary objective of NZWG is to establish and enhance the minimum working conditions and compensation rates for writers. Over the decades, NZWG has achieved significant milestones in supporting writers. In the early 1980s, NZWG played a pivotal role in initiating and negotiating the Theatre Writers agreement. In the early 2000s, NZWG successfully negotiated the NZWG Model Contract with the Screen Production and Development Association (SPADA). Become a NZWG member

- AWGACS Temporary Database Shutdown
As you are aware, AWGACS has been in the process of upgrading our database and we want to thank you for your invaluable feedback on the database and your experience using it. This is a much-needed update to ensure we can maximise our royalty collections and streamline the distribution process for our members.Collecting secondary royalties is a unique and bespoke process, so we have been building a database to match. This database upgrade will also ensure improved data security, an improved distribution process and a system worthy of our members. It’s been a long project and we are pleased to see the build approaching its end. In order for us to fully complete the build, the MyAccount portal will need to be offline for a period of time while back-end development and updates are done. At this stage, we are forecasting that it will remain unavailable from 14 June 2025 until October 2025. During this period AWGACS members will NOT be able to access the MyAccount portal or its functions. This is a tentative date and we will keep members informed of any updates as soon as they happen. We are hoping to have the portal back and running before this date and will let you know as soon as possible. Most of you have already completed your distribution for last year. If you are yet to do this, please log on before 14 June to update your details and complete your payment before 13 June. Otherwise, this will be unavailable until the portal is fully functional again. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact awgacs@awg.com.au or call (02) 9319 0339 . The AWGACS team will remain at your disposal to assist you during the shutdown period so please don’t hesitate to reach out.
