▪️uneven market due to film subsidies (free money) to studios
▪️6 major clients (soon to be 5) pits VFX houses against each other
▪️no union, no guild, no trade association
▪️fixed bids
▪️"digital makeup"

▪️no portable health insurance (US)— Todd Vaziri (@tvaziri) January 2, 2018
▪️zero share in VFX films’ success
▪️always a fight for credits
