Of those who answered the survey, 40% were between the ages of 25 and 34. A huge 84% work in freelance positions and just 13% held staff positions. And 6% more males answered the survey than women.

Of those who answered the survey, a majority work on the West Coast and in unscripted TV, such as documentaries or reality shows.

Scripted TV pays less on average than unscripted.

Unequal pay: While the overall median annual salary in the TV industry is $78,000, women come in at a median $70,000. It gets a lot worse: Non-white production workers make a median salary of just $50,000. And by the way, one can get paid more for working in TV if you're located anywhere other than on the West Coast.

These jobs make $50,000 or less per year.

And these are the jobs that pay more than 50K.
