Re: VFX in Los Angeles 100 hour weeks & homeless
seriously. I made more money for less hours working retail at Fred Meyer in Seattle. I can understand the desire to be successful but if you're working 100 hours a week and homeless that isn't really successful now is it? -
Re: VFX in Los Angeles 100 hour weeks & homeless
The insanity of it all is that no one really wants to change the system by saying "no" to the higher ups. We all have this idea that someone else is waiting to jump in and take our spot in this industry, and while that may be true... if everyone just quit when faced with retarded 100 hour work weeks then it would put the… -
Re: VFX in Los Angeles 100 hour weeks & homeless
what the fuck. seems like a sob story to me, if hes not being paid properly, why continue to do that VFX job and not even get a normal job? maybe im jaded but if I was ever asked to work a 100 hour week and was making less than 150g+ a year I simply would refuse and tell them there was no way in hell im doing that. the… -

So surely you can't complain at the risks of chasing the dream, if that is indeed his dream? -

I agree with the point the article is trying to make, but it's a terrible article and a lot of it doesn't add up. Or this guy is a complete moron. -

> Victor’s annual income is under $10,000 so much for being a c r e a t i v e p r o f e s s i o n a l instead of working for ikea or fulltiming at 7/11 for that matter -

Victor sounds like a fucking idiot. VFX isn't THAT fun. -
Re: VFX in Los Angeles 100 hour weeks & homeless
I hate to say it, but Victor is what is wrong with the industry. Some newly minted grad goes, "Oh boy! I get to work in Hollywood!" and takes whatever low paying abusive job they can get but they think it is putting in their dues. They need to say, "No thanks, I am worth more than this job is being paid. I respect myself…
