@DavidWald_VA@Crunchyroll Oh my God….WTF!!! Adding to this the fact that they constantly give out free merch to the employees and voice actors aren’t allowed to participate. We also no longer get free copies of our own work. We don’t even get invited to Christmas parties. We are just a product.
Thanks for your critique, Janet. We actually tried a couple of episodes where House (Hugh Laurie) (please put the brackets in the right place) gets it right first time, but they were only 6 minutes long. NBC weren’t happy. Then we tried some where House never gets it right and the patient dies. The audience wasn’t happy.
One could apply your trenchant analysis to other art forms: JS Bach wrote 30 Goldberg variations on the same chord structure; Frida Kahlo painted 50 portraits of herself; Henry Moore, what??
The point is, or was, variations on a theme; if all you see is hospital, medical blah blah, then it wasn’t meant for you.
Nonetheless, I look forward to your first novel!
The art director working on Obsession in question complained about the pay they received for the job, in relation to the film's later success, and called for a reevaluation of the industry, as a result.
Let me spell it out simply:
It's over, for them.
The entertainment industry isn't fair. It never has been, and it never will be. You can write the best screenplay of all time, mix the best sound ever heard, or act a role so well the entire academy bursts into tears.
You can do all that, but you're doing it for the contract you signed up front. If that contract stated you'd receive $10,000, and the movie later brought in Avatar money, you're still only getting $10,000.
What you have in your pocket, now, is the money you agreed to receive in exchange for your services; but you have one more thing, as well. It's something more valuable than money ever will be in Hollywood:
You have your name on a smash hit and, as art director, you have your name in an incredibly lofty position of responsibility in regard to that slam dunk of a film.
Your resume just leveled up not only by $10,000, but by 10,000%. You're immediately in the big leagues.
You made it in one miracle shot. Every director knows your name, now. You're on the short list to call first.
The number of art directors who would flat-out break the law to be in your position is staggering. These are people who control pieces of the entire aesthetic of a film, who've worked their tail off for no recognition.
The art director lays out the blueprint in concert with production and direction before anyone else does their job; and throughout production ensures all of that stays on track and adapts as required.
That's an absolutely massive credit.
There's even a dedicated Academy Award for it.
The idea of slaying the dragon the first time you pick up a lance is the stuff of dreams and legend in the film industry.
Standing up right after it happened and crying about a paycheck just pushed you right back down to the bottom of the barrel, and you deserve to be there.
Find another career.
By complaining, you spat in the face of everyone who endured the grind for years, never to make it to that position, and certainly not to get there on a successful, extremely profitable production.
By complaining, you looked down on people climbing a thousand foot ladder in the dead of summer from the air conditioned elevator you were riding, and called them fools for climbing it their entire career.
Here's the problem you just caused yourself:
The people who make the decisions on who to hire in your position climbed that very ladder to get where they are, and you walked into the room saying you're better than them.
Nobody wants that attitude on their production.
They're more willing to roll the dice on an unproven art director than sully the very core of their aesthetic with your pretentious toxicity.
Congratulations on ending your career just as it began.
A team got you there, but this result is all on you.
Here comes the doom and gloom tweeters,...
Like geez why is it always "the end" of TNA when a talent leaves,
TNA HAS PROVED TIME & TIME AGAIN,
THAT THEY'LL BE FINE!
Last week I requested my release from TNA.
I put my blood, sweat, and tears into everything I’ve done over the last 5 years and I’ll always be thankful for my time there.
But now, it’s time to STACK BODIES.
See you soon 🥃
