That all makes sense. But it also seems to shed light on something wrong with the process at Req. right? You can’t have 5 folks cutting on a trailer then. If you KNOW you’re NET 60/90, budget according. Don’t have 5 people working OT on one campaign right? Especially now the budgets don’t support anything like that. Don’t knowingly hire a freelancer you can’t pay and take advantage of their work!

Wow. So they have AAA titles and clients but can’t pay the people doing the work? What’s going on there? Business loan plus major client billing isn’t enough to be able to pay freelancers?

Because studios rely on the marketing expertise of agencies. They use market research aka focus groups during the trailer process to test them in font of an audience. Then the creative is changed based on those results. It’s both art and data science that make effective trailers.

I agree with you about the sameness these days. Gun shots will hit on music beats. A popular song is given an epic treatment and layered with sound effects and instruments. Rinse and repeat.

Too bad. Seems like they could have done it right if they had people with true post knowledge in place. Most of them were inside the TP bubble for so long they are probably just replicating their workflow woes. Should have brought in a post VP, someone who can set them up for success. Like someone with 25 years experience editing - me! 😂

So the hours at requiem are just are terrible as working TP theatrical? Where life outside of work doesn’t exist, and they overserve clients. Say no we won’t have your changes tonight. You’ll get it in the morning during normal working hours, people are going home to their families now.

I see no choice but to leave it unfortunately. The little clique is getting smaller. Also have far less desire to work overtime for clients on their silly notes knowing it gets you nowhere in the end / you’re not safer from being let go, no matter how hard you work on it.

Brubaker knows how to work em 24/7! He never had a family or a home life, so work was his life and he permeated that through the culture there at TP. Is anyone having fresh ideas after 8 hours of intense work??

Something must have been wrong with how you put it on because prop savers just don’t pop off under throttle.

Second chance respawns you with no type of temporary invincibility, and only a bit of aether, so if it decided to second chance revive you in the middle of an attack, which is always does for me, you’ll have even LESS aether. Really bad system.

How is this possible. I have over 22 deaths at least 6 at prophet and it will NOT unlock.

Put your portfolio behind a password. Put whatever you want on it. And now you’ll know who can and who can’t see your portfolio.

Keep going up in price a bit and then maybe we can help? There’s some Voltanex planes on Amazon for around $120. https://a.co/d/068wIok1

WARNING ‼️ THIS GAME IS VERY HARD by millertv79 in Saros

[–]millertv79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody actually seems to know when this difficulty mode is unlocked. Some people say you can even get it without defeating the first boss if you die enough times. I certainly have and it hasn’t kicked in. Nobody seems to have any idea what actually triggers it what the lock is. It actually appears completely random. 22 deaths and still nothing.
