Just like videogames and movies/tv. There's an infinite, ever refreshing revolving door of fresh meat for the grinder. And people want to be part of it regardless.
With such conditions there will never be an increase to pay. It's just the way things will be in these segments - forever!
- autoexec 3y agoJust like with movies/tv you can make a lot more progress with unions.
- dimgl 3y agoI don't think that necessarily applies. Over time movie stars tend to become their own products and movies sell because of their involvement. I just don't see the same thing happening with animators aside from the most prestigious.
- autoexec 3y agoTV writers, or even the folks doing lighting and holding microphones don't gain prestige like movie stars do either, but they're in unions which allows them them get better wages.
- ff2400t 3y agoI think that was reasonable thing to bet over a decade ago. But these days there are very few Big time movie star who can carry a movie on their back. The Last big movie star would be Tom Cruise and he also isn't a surefire way to success by how the latest Mission impossible Performed. The more reasonable thing to bet on these days is Recognizable IP which is what the Big studios have been milking for years. And that also gives more power to the Studio since people don't go to theater for Robert Pattison, they go there for Batman.
