I am concerned about the state of California and the US's Visual Effects and Animation industry and the fact that so much of the industry is being outsourced. I am worried that in the near future this will affect my livelihood.
I have been meeting with industry workers all week to document how constant outsourcing is eroding our local talent base. Email your district representative now and demand they prioritize tax incentives for studios that keep production within our borders.

Reaching this milestone proves that people across the state recognize the threat to our industry. Call your state representative today and demand they prioritize local production incentives. Post this link on your Facebook page to bring others into the fight.

Hollywood is nothing without the vfx artists. Stop outsourcing everything just to save a few bucks.

Its honestly ridiculous that these big studios cant afford to keep artists in state. Pay them what they are worth.
