IndieWire: Dan Vetanovetz, a crew member with Local 728 who deals with set lighting, wrapped work on upcoming “Star Wars” series “Skeleton Crew” in January 2023. The show capped a period dating back to September 2020 in which he worked back-to-back on projects including “Westworld” and Ryan Murphy’s “The Prom.”

I was unaware that there was such a lull in the industry right now for work. I also had never heard of this idea that peak TV is over, but I guess it does make sense. A 14 percent drop in scripted shows is quite a large drop, especially when this is the biggest drop in 20 years of history. It seems like the numbers keep declining for shows. It seems to be that this is largely caused by the strikes and the great loss of money that productions studios have faced. It is quite interesting and sad to learn about how this lack of work affects the crew workers. It’s unfortunate that lower crew workers are left whut work because the professionals with decades of experience are forced to do the lower tier jobs as well due to the lack of work. I hope that work within the industry will improve for all of the crew members struggling to find jobs right now. I feel like at some point the shows will have to come back again at a higher volume.
