	Directors Guild of America - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Directors Guild of America (DGA) is the labor union which represents the interests of film and television directors in the United States motion picture industry.
		Founded as the "Screen Directors Guild" in 1936, the group became the DGA in 1960.
		Those who aren't members of the guild are unable to direct for the larger movie studios, which are signatories to the guild's agreements that all directors must be guild members.

	LeVar Burton On Behalf of the Directors Guild of America
		Directors may not always hit the mark with every film, but through the revelation of joy and pain, bravery and fear, greatness and weakness, happiness and sadness, we try to seek the truth in the story we are telling.
		The director and his or her collaborators—the writer, the actor, the cinema-tographer, the art director, the film editor—make these decisions constantly …before the film begins shooting… during shooting… and in the post-production room where the film gets edited.
		The DGA would take on a leadership role in the industry by creating materials and an outreach campaign for our members that would encourage their awareness of their social responsibility in connection with the depiction of smoking in films.

		The sixteen directors named as defendants in the original lawsuit, all of whom will be represented by the DGA, are Robert Altman, Michael Apted, Taylor Hackford, Curtis Hanson, Norman Jewison, John Landis, Michael Mann, Phillip Noyce, Sydney Pollack, Robert Redford, Martin Scorsese, Brad Silberling, Steven Soderbergh, Steven Spielberg, Betty Thomas and Irwin Winkler.
		In the counterclaim, the DGA states that these entities are in violation of the Lanham Act, which is a federal statute that prohibits false advertising, trademark infringement, and unfair competition, and has been applied to protect an artist's right not to be associated with an unauthorized, edited version of his or her work.
		In its counterclaim, the DGA and its director plaintiffs are asking the Court to grant a permanent injunction to stop the defendants from wrongfully distributing unauthorized versions of feature films that they have edited to remove content and language.

	Why Not Quit the Directors Guild? - What Robert Rodriguez can and can't do. By Daniel Engber (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-20)
		Last year, its director Robert Rodriguez quit the Directors Guild of America in a dispute over whether he could bring on the author of the comic, Frank Miller, as a credited co-director.
		A director, for example, is guaranteed between $8,000 and $15,000 per week, depending on the size of the production.
		On the other hand, many of the best assistant directors are guild members, and skilled personnel can often save money for a studio by making sure the work gets done on schedule.

		Robert Rodriguez's decision to resign from the Directors Guild of America rather than conform to its "one director-one film" policy has now imperiled Paramount's A Princess of Mars, which Rodriguez had been slated to direct, Daily Variety reported today (Thursday).
		Rodriguez quit the DGA last month so that he could co-direct Dimension Films' Sin City with Frank Miller, who wrote and illustrated the graphic novel series on which the movie is based.
		Rodriguez had sought a waver from the DGA so that he could work with Miller, but the guild had refused, maintaining that it has a firm position that only one director may receive screen credit on any film.

		Two years ago the DGA initiated an intense campaign to organize reality programs so that members could take advantage of the economic protections such as minimum salaries, residuals, and pension and health benefits that Guild agreements provide.
		"All DGA members benefit from the Reality Agreement because they have access to jobs being created in the reality genre and, as a result, can be assured of economic protections, such as health and pension benefits, that DGA contracts offer," said DGA director J. Rupert Thompson (Fear Factor).
