"Not pleasant for anyone trying to make a living in what used to be a pretty satisfying occupation" according to Thomas Briggs. A much appreciated overview of the dismal economics of the VFX industry. Grage provides what the artists cannot, the economic forces that are pushing their engagement and value to the industry down. Not pleasant for anyone trying to make a living in what used to be a pretty satisfying occupation, but necessary.. Kindle Customer said Pure awesomeness. Incredibly clear view of the industry. Tough, sharp and written with great love of the visual effects. Recommended for everyone involved.. Perspective! Very unique point of view. As an aspiring VFX artist I would recommend this book to anyone alike. Very smooth read.
