Opportunities

I have been thinking about a few things lately regarding our industry. As everyone has seen from the media that we are apparently in the middle of a Global Financial Crisis. My first little rant is - that's absolute bullshit, it's just a shift of power (and wealth), someones always getting rich so don't you worry about that. Also I am seeing the production companies and advertising agencies using the GFC as an 'opportunity' to get people to work for less. So here I am saying stop using that as an excuse and pay what people deserve, your all full of shit. More money is being spent on movies as people need an escape, companies right now should be advertising more then ever, if things are slow then why make it slower but reducing your marketing, doesn't make any sense to me.

When I look around the world at all the major players in the industry everyone is busy, animated movies, special effect heavy movies are everywhere and the opportunities are immence for a 3D artist. Sure America has reduced their VISA intake but look elsewhere - games companies are looking for talented people, if you want it go and get it. A colleague sent me a link to a TRON 2 'Legacy' trailer - holly crap, if you were born in the 70's and were any sort of a nerd then TRON was most likely your thing. Some movies leave a memory burn and TRON was one of them, honestly I think that's why I am in the industry. Jesus I think I might have to change my website to 'IwantajobatDigitalDomain.com' because working on TR2N would be living a life dream. Check it out here



So what have I been doing - few commercials here and there but mainly I have been working on 2LargeProductions children's television series pitch called 'Bearobics' which our own IP. We have a deadline of end of august so needless to say we are flat stick. No movement with Monty Biggs - hopefully I can get back onto it soon.
