shitstain pissed off that he can be replaced at the drop of a hat. in other news...water is wet.

The entire TV animation industry is run off of sketchy-at-best animation studios in South Korea and some offshoots in the Philippines

A lot of really bad labor conditions in other parts of the world so executives save a penny and the Calarts babies in Burbank have the privelege of an easier workweek.

What did they do?

If they wanna get paid they should animate well then, not shit out some flash animation cartoon.

allegedly they didn't credit some people who where involved in the pilot, also standard shady practices like 6-months internship/exploitation contracts and stuff
but none of this got confirmed

what the hell is that thumbnail. can someone give me a rundown?

Attached: what is this, a picture for ants.gif (100x56, 51K)

Netflix uses Philippines Animation Studios and pays them about fifty bucks a week.

How the fuck is that a scandal? Outsourcing shit to shithole countries with no money is key to modern capitalism. Are people raising a stink about capitalism?

50 bucks a week is probably big money for pinoys, either way most animators are severely underpaid.

boy I sure can't wait for the standards of how people treat japanese animators to become the standard for treating american animators
that'll be swell
>The House of Cards lead murdered his victim scott free
you fucking what

Isn't this a purely internal issue? It seems the grievances the guy had are with the animation company itself, and he only brings up Carmen Sandiego cause he worked on it. If this shit blows up, Netflix just won't renew their contracts with Top Draw.

Not only his aunt, but his aunt who's also his brother

You know you can just look up whether that's enough money to live off of

it really isn't

It's almost like anime animators have a severely idealized conception of the Western industry!

It doesn't matter whether or not it's enough money to live off. If the animators are willing to work for shitty money, then they willingly worked for it. They're not slaves.

Why is animation like this? Is it really too expensive to pay people in America a living wage to produce a cartoon instead of using sweatshop labor?

calart faggots are lazy but want you to pay them a lot. Why hire them when chinks from a third world country can do the same for a fraction of the total cost?

There really is.

thankyou for the summary.

he should set up a gofundme or something

>Is it really too expensive to pay people in America a living wage
Yes. You can't get hired for shit without a college degree, so that "living wage" has to be the cost of living PLUS the cost of paying down student loans.

it wouldn't be if animation was allowed to expand beyond the overexpensive shithole that is LA. A studio that worked on Castlevania was from Florida, if I recall, and made a decent product with decent wages. I'm not sure why, but there's lobbying to force US animation to be produced in Cali only.

Oh I see. Is that really news though?

its not, to raise the wages of all employees in a megacorp would mean the CEO has to go without a fifth megayacht and only able to offer the stockholders a 6000% profit margin rather than a 14,000% profit margin. please undertand

same shit with programers from india and other shitholes from SEA and South America
Thanks god i stopped being a code monkey years ago

Under US law that would be illegal, unless raising employee wages was part of some greater scheme to raise the corporation's value. Everything a public corp does MUST be for the benefit of the shareholders.

>Asian animation companies pay very low wages
How is that even news, much less a "scandal"? Also this studio did like 9 seasons of horse show, how come no one complained back when it was in production?

Everyone knew this, commie calarts animators knew this shit but never cared

Blame unions
Frankly I'd gladly work minimum wage in animation if art school wasn't hella expensive

There is a difference between low wages and trying to have half your workforce be counted as interns or part of training programs so you can technically pay them below minimum wage.

Some guy who accused Spacey was just found dead before his trial. Pretty shady.

phew, thank god. It's just an underpaid artists/animator. No cartoon is ever gonna get shut down for something like that. For a second I was worried someone did something more serious like smile at a woman

I would please like a reassurance that under US law its not illegal to tell your shareholders "We're not going to exploit people to raise our profit margins, fuck you"

if unions had more flak, art school would be as cheap as it was in the 40's and even flipping burgers would pay enough to pay off a home loan in just a few years

It would be illegal for the CEO to do that, yes. Especially if he takes steps to reduce exploitation before consulting the shareholders so they can fire him first.

People would find ways to have the chinaman halfway around the world fry up your burger before sending it to you if fast food workers ever unionized.

Then maybe stop requiring useless degrees?

i can't read shit what is this for ants

i want phone posters to leave

Everybody that knows anything about animation knows about this, how is this fucking news?

Florida animation is news to me, I know a Texas studio also worked on Castlevania who also did the intro for Battle Chasers
Also Georgia has been trying to become its own Hollywood for years

they need to stop hiring people based on wokeness

It must fucking suck being THAT paranoid.

that's fucked taking advantage of these kids who spent thousands in art school

fuck i legitimately wish i had a solution. my dream is to run an animation studio. but animation is literally the most labor intensive and unpredictable segment, isn't it?

what's the best way to handle pay that is fair? The product needs to make a profit somewhere. Merch? Games?

should it be like a contract? I pay this person $70-100k for a year of work? And a little extra if the project takes longer?

not gonna happen until capitalists get the guillotine

do what Ufotable does (mix 2d and 3d animation)

it must be nice to be mentally-ill

if we get rid of capitalism then we should incarcerate neets who don't produce and watch cartoons all day.

Take a bunch of kids who either can't get into college or dropped out. Hire them on as interns, and imply that the exposure from your project will help them get hired by paying studios (even though it won't). Remind them constantly that if they dont want to put their heart and souls into your (non-paying) project, there are plenty of impressionable young artists who will.

Once the project is finished, sell it for money. Or if no one is buying, slap it on YouTube for ad revenue. You won't make much, but then again you didn't have to pay anyone either!

>choosing making peanuts over making zero money at all is consenting to poverty and exploitation
you are anti-human, ant-life, and anti-thought

If you get rid of capitalism everyone will be neets tho

That would probably work too... But I seriously believe in paying skilled people handsomely. Like I wish I was rich just to pay people. But then again, that goes against being rich.

On another note, are there any examples of limited animation getting views on youtube? I have a couple ideas I wanna try out. Release them as 5-10minute episodes. The animation so limited they may as well be a comic. Then add in some royalty free background music to set the mood a bit.

I'm just being realistic. I've described the system as it is and ad it works. Without an international underclass, the West would be nowhere near as well off as it is. Everything you consume is the result of someone being exploited, unless it's a u-pick orchard or something.

exactly. if we become capitalists i will join the military and gunbutt every leftist faggot that refuses to work.

Neets > artists who made cartoons all day as a job.

Think about it, Neets actually consume the media, which makes the content have a market in the first place and continue to exist. Before you ask me, yes, children are neets too.

>if we become capitalists
I meant, if we become socialist

children who go to school are not neets, they will become workers, produce or be executed

99 percent of school children become neets

>are there any examples of limited animation getting views on youtube?
First example that comes to mind are animatics, some of which are wildly popular but most of which are riding on the coattails of already popular properties.

wow thank you for this. it's unfortunate that they need to use other properties to get views, but that's the nature of youtube i guess.

Games industry has had this problem as well for several decades. And it's only just now getting the attention it deserves. If all of this is true then companies need to be held accountable. I know a lot of anons here are like "so?" or "happens all the time" but I'm willing to bet they'd be the first to whine about making even minimum wage. Either way you should be paid appropriately for your work. Stop giving companies a pass for immoral business practices because you're aware that it happens. You don't even have to be an activist or anything, just stop defending them.

The funny thing is it's blatantly obvious that it's just jealous fucks trolling for dirt to ruin somebody for getting ahead. I could understand if they said or did something fucked up very recently and then people went looking for dirt, that would make sense

>Games industry has had this problem as well for several decades.
Tech in general has this issue. They sold the lie that if you go into CS you'd be making the big bucks but you're expendable as fuck with how many others there are in the industry without even mentioning the legion of outsourced workers.

Didn't Villanous also have a scandal with the animators?

Like I keep pointing out, this is what corps are legally obliged to do. To start a company you need capital, and capital only comes from rich cunts who want to get richer. If you take their money and spend too much treating people like people, your ass is grass.

Crowdsourced animation. Everyone on the planet gets an opportunity to draw one frame. Then you smash it all together and hope for the best.

Capitalism!

If you want to simplify it and put all the blame on the worker you can do that. But I've seen how places will screw a person over after they accept the job. I interviewed for a hotel front desk clerk and asked if it was full time. They said I would work 8 hour shifts five days a week. However after I started working I was told that I would have to clock out every shift for my 30 minute lunch. Technically I was still working full time because it was over 35 hours but I explicitly asked about the shift length. Turns out the hotel chain had a bonus incentive for the managers and one of the requirements was that no one worked overtime the whole month. No surprise that any of the other workers saw none of that bonus. That's not even the only time working at a hotel screwed me over. The other time I noped the fuck out after a week.

This seems relevant to the thread.

There can be other factors as well such as not fully realizing how much money you'd make. This is especially true in cases where you are paid per something other than time. You'll be told the upper limit of what you'd make and the process would sound easier. Then you start working and realize how much you can do and that you just might have been misled. That's usually how jobs get you and a lot of people don't realize it until much later.

And I'm not saying I'm 100% believing all these accusations. It's just that I know this is a thing in a lot of jobs.

This is your first problem. Get out of the mindset that you need to make a profit because most don't Most cartoons survive off of government grants and tax credits, not merch.
And this idiot seems to think that an uneducated animator is not an employee. The industry doesn't care if you went to school. If you know how to work, you're on the same level to them as a 4-year Calarts grad. You sound worse than these Filipino animation slave drivers.

Dude, what? That's a good thing. Overtime is FAILURE. It means the company doesn't have enough resources to do the job. Of course the management got the bonus; that's their job.

>i signed a contract knowing what I was going to get paid and then I bitch about it because I'm a stupid nigger mexican

literally just quit and find a better job. if you're expected to work 16 hour days for under minimum wage, why the FUCK would you ever go back for day two?

i do not understand it what-so-ever. you're better off begging on a street corner.

No because even minimum wage jobs will schedule you for 8 hours if they want. What they do is have you clock out for lunch and you're technically there for 8 hours plus the time for lunch. The issue with the bonus is that NOBODY can have overtime, not even a minute so to make sure that can't happen they make sure you can never get close to 8 hours. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. The entire job is built in a way to exploit you while paying you as little as possible and finding a way to pay even less. I know this situation best because I worked there for almost a year before quitting and getting a better job. That's ultimately what you have to do for jobs such as that. You just have to walk away and that's what more animators need to do.

But there's the blacklist issue that's a big deal the games industry. If you rub one company the wrong way then the CEOs and managers tell the others and next thing you know it's harder to get a job in the same field. People need to understand that if you don't like one job you can't just shrug and go next door and get a better job.

I would like to reassure that you're retarded. It's illegal for companies to manipulate stock prices. It's not illegal to give your employees a raise or higher wages, it's illegal to do so for the express purpose of devaluing your stock by inflating expenses. Otherwise it'd be illegal for companies to have any sort of losses or reduced profits.

Unions in specialized labor fields pursue policies to control labor supply, as labor surpluses drive down wages, actual art school wasn't cheap, there was simply a plethora of correspondence courses and the industry standard was much lower, and when adjusted for inflation and cost of living the maximum value of minimum wage in the USA was in 1968 where it topped out in the amazing of $10.79 per hour.

make dat paper

CalArts people will be very quiet about this, since the depend on these sweatshops to do the ACTUAL animation, they only do storyboarding and overall design.

Without these slavewages for the people doing the most time-consuming work, the CalArts clique won't make their nice salaries and royalties.

What student films you retard

>distinct from one another
I'm not going to say I can spot a project from a Calarts student a mile away but I've seen quite a few and they either look the same and/or play out the same. And even then we've seen how some currently working on shows that look like AT clones used to draw differently. And it has become a bit of a meme where we see a great pilot, hear it got picked up, and then brace to see the Ubisoft levels of graphical downgrades for the show. And it can be argued how it's necessary to make the cartoon more affordable to animate, it still manages to strip away a lot of uniqueness the original had.

So while that user is talking about how a college strips away an artist's sense of originality, I'd say that any remaining originality is further stripped when entering the industry.

Just because it's happening doesn't mean you shouldn't condemn the actions.

Since this dude lives in the Philippines, there's an important distinction to be made here. Is he asking for an American's minimum wage? Or is he asking for minimum wage here. Because lemme tell you, 7.25 USD an hour can make you really fucking comfortable in the Philippines.

>7.25 USD an hour can make you really fucking comfortable in the Philippines.

companies in the philippines don't pay by the hour. they pay by the work day. and that work day can last 9-12 hours depending on the company.

also, there's no authority to say what the minimum salary of a filipino animator should be (unlike licenced practitioners where they seem to make an agreement among themselves). so minimum wage, that's just some fast food worker's salary or some store attendant.

that is just what modern feminism is all about, white women getting one job after another and all the praise simply for having a vagina while poor brown people do all the hard work and get treated like slaves

You poor sweet naive privilege kid

>But Filipinos is a nice country to make money when animating
So I did some basic math and if these animators are working a basic, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week schedule, that would mean that they’re only earning $1.25 per hour.

>a basic, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week

>dollar has the same buying power than in my californian shithole

Pretty much yeah. That's minimum wage here. The animator in the OP said he was paid below that, which I find hard to believe. Maybe he's talking about the minimum wage for animators in the US though.

But he doesn't work in the US. You can make much more money there than in Philippines

The amount of so many foreigners saying stuff like "Php 2,500 is considered wealthy in 3rd world countries!" is amazing. News Flash: even we Filipinos consider that tantamount to slave labour. The only cheap food that costs Php 40 is stuff like rice porridge (not even the good kind, just cheaply seasoned with salt). Eating that kind of cheap food will lead you to an early grave thanks to malnutrition. Plus thanks to the current administration we are entering a recession, with prices on dairy products rising every month.

$50/Php 2,500 a week is NOT something you can survive on.

Something villainous.

Damn, I can't believe those guys serving me at Jollibee and 7-11 were starving all along

So stop working for it. Encourage people working for it to stop and unionize.
Then watch those jobs disappear to another overpopulated shithole country because there's no shortage of those now. Globalism fuck year. Everyone can just work at JOLLIBEES

Make your own Company and hire filipino slave laborers then. See how that works

They can't even unionize because it's illegal and if they vote for a government that make it legal, USA overthrow it, either by economical sanctions and a demolition campaign with the media owned by big corporations or direct militar intervention.

>Assuming that I work at topdraw because of what my friends have to put up with all the shit they have to work on
That's so sweet

Different filipino user here.
Most of the people Topdraw hires are newbies who are too new and inexperienced to know that this is THAT bad. They bait them with free training and lock them in with vague contracts that they don't know how to comprehend.

They steal their taxes, only for them to find out they have accumulated debt with the government when they leave. Pay is based on how much scenes you work on, so people who hoard easy scenes get paid bigger by the week, and the harder leftovers (sometimes with 3-5 people in the same scene) goes to the newbies who get paing sometimes 50$ for the month. Someone came out that they caught dengue from the mosquitoes that live inside the building.

A story my friend told me about another studio they work for was that one guy got paid around 500$ that week but only because they lived inside the office, constantly working for the whole week, sacrificing their health and sleep. AWOL isn't uncommon and it's sadly the better choice for some people.

Genuinely curious. Which is the less shit scenario? Working for burger studios or Toei Philippines?

I can't speak on behalf the difference between that and toei philippines. I'm unfortunately unfamiliar with the philippines toei studio. But I can guarantee they have at least better payment. (or they don't who knew)

Because that's what the studios demand. They're not looking for artists who can be creative, they want workers who can deliver on their style.

This isn't a budget problem. This isn't even a problem with Netflix or the Filipino studios. This is a problem with how the pie is cut, and this is not new. Even when the budget of the Simpsons ballooned to $5 million per episode, the Korean animators didn't get a raise.

This isn't a problem that can be solved by pouring more money into it. It requires the people at top to give a bit away.
