usual outsourcer bashing in the VFX discussion and the borderline racism when it comes to chinese and indians - bad quality, work for peanuts, no standards, yadda yadda. As if it were the fault of the people here - who too just want to work in the field they love - that the salaries in their country are low. What are…
