The industry is looking to go into a recession if I'm honest. It isn't looking good for any VFX companies right now. Between outsourcing to India and projects getting either cut or pushed, it is not looking good. They just cut over half my company yesterday. My last day of work is December 30th. The studio is closed Dec 26th-30th. So I essentially get a paycheck for this week and next week and then have to try and survive on unemployment until I can find something else. Unemployment is a joke where I will be getting maybe $300 a week, which is less than half what I was making a week. People are getting fucked by this in so many ways.
