Cameramen's' Guild Adopts Revised Constitution
TV cameramen and women have adopted a new constitution after their recent annual general meeting.
The Guild of Television Cameramen's (GTC) annual general meeting formed part of the organisation's 'Big Day Out' at Castle Combe, and saw GTC members vote to accept a new Constitution for the Guild.
Honorary President and founder member of the GTC, Dick Hibberd, explained that, after nearly 40 years, the original Constitution drafted by himself and other cameramen involved in forming the Guild, had become increasingly unwieldy and in places contradictory following generations of amendments.
A sub-committee of the Council was tasked with going through the old Constitution with a fine toothcomb to find all the contradictions and anachronisms, and ended up proposing an extensive rewrite.
The new Constitution aims to redress the anomalies of the old one, and is designed to allow Council freedom to move the GTC forward in our changing industry while at the same time safeguarding the resources and principles of the GTC and the rights of GTC members.
