As someone who had his name left out of film credits before (actually, it listed the guy’s name who didn’t get the role I got instead of mine), I know how this stings. Sadly film & television is full of neglectful morons, they fuck up, ultimately all you can do is move on.
That’s particularly rough. I’d be livid. Did the mistake stay in the credits for subsequent publications of the project?
Surely the producers could update the credits when the error is discovered?
Assuming the film is listed on IMDb, were you not credited anywhere?
I was very young then and much easier to push around. This was well before IMDB existed.
At some point, when it comes to the way VFX people are treated in the industry, it goes beyond simple neglect imo. These people are constantly being fucked over.
I sincerely doubt it was neglect, but a calculated decision either to support his "no CG" bullshit or to hide the fact they used outsourced CG farms with terrible working conditions.
