Effects Corner: Oh, the mess we’re in!

Scott Squires:

The visual effects industry is still having problems and they’re getting worse. R&H looks like their filling for Chapter 11. Why do companies have to underbid and close? Why are artists losing jobs without notice? If visual effects is helping to create most of the successful films of all time, why do we have so little leverage? Why do companies and artists have so little control over what’s happening?

 

Who's next is the question we all should be asking. This can happen to any of us at anytime. No matter how good you are at your job. Sometimes being good is not enough.
