thanks. Yeah, i'm just starting out in my cinematography classes and i was just curious about what people have been saying. And congrats on being a union member :D

I'm curious to know what everyone's opinions of the unions are. I've heard quite a few stories of cinematographers just starting out that have their equipment and sites trashed by union members when they don't join. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it normal? From what i've heard, joining a union could be really hard and expensive, so is getting in really worth it?
