Anchorage Press: "It’s too bad Scott Christiansen didn’t have the time to actually talk to any boots on the ground who worked on the two big movies that came to town, or to anyone from our union about films (“Film schooled,” February 10). I am a member of IATSE Local #918. We are a theatre and film union that started a local chapter in 1983. You know us as the folks that set up the Anchorage Symphony, Anchorage Opera, and the Broadway shows like Spamalot and The Lion King when they come to town. Observant viewers have probably seen our ‘bug,’ a five point IA logo at the bottom of the credits for major movies and TV shows. The biggest difference between Everybody Loves Whales and Ghost Vision was the former was a union movie and the latter was not.
