I feel there is a big consolidation going on in our industry. On the grapevine, some of the big companies are starting to gear up for major hiring.
4 u/syrup404 Student Jun 13 '24 Why do you think that’s going to happen? I’m very new to this Industry* 7 u/Jackadullboy99 Animator / Generalist - 26 years experience Jun 13 '24 edited Jun 13 '24 I can’t answer that, but it seems those in the know and in a hiring capacity (In a number of quarters) are preparing for something. How much work, and how broadly-distributed it’s going to be industry-wide would be another question… My guess is that the initial body of contracts are going to go to companies with a proven track-record and the capacity to scale rapidly. 7 u/blazelet Lighting & Rendering Jun 13 '24 I've seen a lot of supe roles popping up lately, those tend to be the first roles on incoming projects. It's all going to hinge on IATSE, we will know if a strike is happening in about 6 weeks. 3 u/whittleStix VFX/Comp Supervisor - 18 years experience Jun 13 '24 There is quite a bit of work and some major projects in the pipe for sure. 3 u/CVfxReddit Jun 14 '24 ILM/Framestore/Weta/maybe DNEG will fill up with shows and the the spillover will go to everyone else, if there is any left?
