And finally, a job category breakdown of men who make up 82% of the working membership.
In the fall of 2006 the TAG Blog had a spirited discussion of gender stereotypes and hiring in animation, leading to our co-sponsoring a panel discussion with See Jane, an advocacy group founded by Geena Davis. Here are some employment statistics we put together for the panel.
The thoughts and observations of the leaders of The Animation Guild (TAG), Local 839 IATSE. Jason MacLeod is the Business Representative, KC Johnson is the President. Mike Sauer is Assistant to the Business Representative.

Excellent. here's the information I was interested in:
The following is the percentage of artists for each category who are women:
Story/Direction: 13.9%
Design: 19.8%
CG: 15.1%
Animation: 19.9%
Trainees: 34.7%
Ink & Paint: 100%
(I'm curious now though, what company still uses ink & paint?)
Though the actual numbers are obviously different it seems the percentages are pretty close between men and women. That's a good thing, right...?
