It's a shame Marvel and studios alike them are pushing the deadline for production of these movies. I think I heard that these VFX artists gets weeks to finish the job they get. So they have to work 60 - 80 hours a week. That is truly terrifying.

I work for “the mouse” and from an insider’s perspective, the company is fucking retarded. The left hand doesn’t talk to the right and neither hand has any idea they’ve got feet. It’s the most siloed company I’ve ever been a part of.

Not mouse, but adjacent, and y'all got some amazing talent and toys in your vfx arsenal. Absolute respect to that team and everyone I've encountered from Mouse Proper, ILM and otherwise. Seriously top notch humans who deserve representation and recognition, no matter what their bosses' hands and feet are up to.

This is what I've heard, too. It's always a huge crush to get everything done by an unreasonable deadline. Every single time. They should absolutely strike for more humane working hours and realistic scheduling.
