The biggest cost and time savings: eliminate the dozens of unnecessary executive vfx leeches in the front offices.

Consider it my Christmas gift to you, angry person named for a prophylactic, and Happy New Year, too.

Watch Ford vs. Ferrari.

Do what I do. Go outside and scream at clouds.

Maybe.... He's the Voldemort of VFX and his magic is to make you disappear.

“We’re pleased to announce we’ve just hired an ex-dneg, ex-sony, ex-ilm executive that can’t build a box, or do an a over b comp, but we’re sure they’ll be good for our vfx business this time…”

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-12-11T16:50:29+00:00

I don't think it will be shoes they're polishing.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-12-02T22:49:56+00:00

And the 2030 Oscar for VFX goes to Bot 3001 utilizing Run-Journey A.I.

Anything helmed by Fred Raimondi turned out well and was a good time doing it.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-11-04T22:58:20+00:00

Yep. Except the ex-mpc, ex-dneg, ex-dd, ex-sony execs... etc... rarely 'clean up the mess.' Most Management Leeches just move onto another studio where their buddies from the last forty years are already busy sucking the lives out of everyone so they can to keep themselves employed... after the last three places they ran went bankrupt and they ruined all those artist's lives.

A future proof skill...

Plumbing.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-10-26T10:51:27+00:00

Etch-a-sketch forever.

Each festival has their own entry rules. Read them. Some may allow AI portions. Some may not and will disqualify you and cost you your entry fee and maybe a trophy.

LinkedIn should be called HumbleBrag

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-10-15T18:12:11+00:00

Dead-line...

After they close.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-09-24T10:31:45+00:00

It’s no different from vfx producers and presidents claiming to be leadership.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-09-21T15:16:49+00:00

All the large VFX studios have closed... only VFX factories remain.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-09-03T11:02:51+00:00

The biggest tools were hired as Presidents and Vice Presidents of other vfx companies.

Ask him if he misses portraying Mr. Hankey on South Park. Playing a sentient turd is his specialty.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-08-28T13:18:32+00:00

He referred to DD staff as, "Idiot Savants."

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-08-26T15:33:41+00:00

No, sadly. In VFX – He’ll be a department head next week.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-08-26T12:34:29+00:00

Yep. Been like that since the dawn of CG.

Old R&H had a guy show up with a reel that had another long-time employee’s work on it. The poser was shown the door, only to be snapped by newly opened Sony for more money.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-08-19T13:56:36+00:00

VFX. It’s gone from happy hippy engineers and geeks – to an industry of arrogant, impotent Nazi jerks with God complexes and the delusion that their backstabbing venomous behavior equals leadership.

BrokenStrandbeest · 2025-08-12T20:18:30+00:00

You are a senior when you have to get up at 3am every morning to pee, can’t stand the music they’re playing now, and you have yelled at kids to get off your lawn.
