"Disney exit won't hurt local animators"

..... like hell it won't!!!

"It is a blow to people ... I wouldn't say it is to the industry,"

So, putting 200 animators out of work won't affect the industry?

In an industry that is already severely under serviced? Under paid and under-respected?

I have no love for Disney products or their sweat-shop mentality. But it has been a place where young animators get some fantastic training (if they can survive the experience) and where some of my pals have been able to pick up some descant freelance gigs.

Besides those 200 people now out of work, it also affects all the other animators in the country. There are now 200 more people competing for the very, very few gigs around Australia at the moment.

You SUCK, Disney!!
