Show Notes
Because of the change that's happening due to COVID-19 and quarantine, a lot of us had to shift to working from home. The day that the quarantine happened, everyone started to shut down. It got scary for a minute. But it's really interesting how every studio was able to pivot and adapt to what was going on. And this is not just visual effects. This is worldwide! It's reflecting on everything. The entire world had to learn to roll with the punches.
The advantages are that you're no longer stuck in a city where you have to work. That means you don't have to live in an expensive city. You can move to cheaper cities or countries. That also means that those of you that didn't have an opportunity to work for ILM before, you now have a chance to do that. You don't need a work visa. Bit by bit, things are becoming global.
In this Podcast, Allan takes a look at the consequences of having to work from home post COVID-19, breaks down different ways VFX artists can make it happen and the positive outcomes of transitioning into a truly global industry.
