COVID-19 has stopped the production of films and commercials across the entire globe. This has put an industry made of millions of freelance crew members out of work, with no sick leave, PTO, or option to remain financially stable.<\/p>\n
The film industry supports 2.1 million jobs in the U.S., with millions more around the globe. In Los Angeles County alone, there are over 120,000 workers in the film industry and 258,000 in the broader \u0003entertainment sector.<\/p>\n
To help those with little or no work at this time, Reframe the World (an award-winning production company founded on the belief that stories can change the world) has launched KEEPGOING, a virtual gallery selling prints<\/a> by directors and DPs around the world. For every print sold, 100% of the proceeds go to the Motion Picture & Television Fund COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund.<\/a><\/p>\n “We are so grateful for the support of KEEPGOING<\/a> and of all the Directors and DPs who have contributed their photos and film stills. MPTF is committed to its mission of helping our entertainment community in their time of need,\u201d said Courteney Bailey, Chief Development Officer for the Motion Picture Television Fund (MPTF).<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/adpulp.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/KEEPGOING_ParekhAndrij.jpg\")
