Just doing my part in Austin, Tx! My name is Justin Warren, and I am a former full time VFX artist who had to look for other work in the industry to support my ...
JoeNorte - That's why we need unions to protect vfx artists, just like they
do every other trade craft in major film production. Well done, Justin! My
man!

The VFX industry is a victim of its own inflated ego end greed. The
salaries are ridiculously over inflated especially if you compare them to
design visualisers or game artists who have skill-sets equal to or even
more developed than many VFX artists. Compounding the problem is the salary
scale, with supes and producers commanding disproportionate salaries for
what they actually do - Ive met supes who cant even use Maya or Max. Its
time to wake up and smell the coffee I say.
You're exactly right about supervisors. That position has become something
of a misnomer for someone who can't actually do any of the things they're
in charge of. I fully support the artists here, but we're all in a bad
position because of the industry we work in. Hollywood has similar ethics
to politicians, so pushing for equality when it comes to pay is losing
battle.
without these people we have no great films, even if you think there are no
VFX there will be they are so good at their job you dont notice, they get
no credit and now this, it sucks for them and for people like me who want
to be part of the industry
Work for hours and hours for weeks for something that got an oscar, you
were not even paid for it, not even credited in the speech, we'll see then
how pissed off you get.
The whole VFX thing really sucks, I know you guys are in the Industry and I
hope to join the industry in a few years and when such a company can fall
like that it hits you like, shit then what does that mean for the smaller
studios who aren't at the level it really sucks. anyway great video guys,
really loved this one
Keanu Reeves has had such a hard life man.... His dad sold heroin, his
mother was a whore, he's dyslexic, he didn't get to play ice hockey because
of an injury he sustained, a sister of his was diagnosed with leukimea, one
best friend OD'd, and he had a fiance with child that died in a car crash.
Fuck man.
.3. They're better than most Let's Players... As soon as that cutscene
ended, they realized it and stopped talking even when they had been
monologuing for 8 minutes. I need to find a way to get them popular...
dood, I'm not even fucking paying attention to the game, it's just to
interesting to hear you guys talk. Totally not Gay Talk Show while playing
videogames. :)
