Contract rants

Many animation studios ie. Dreamworks, Sony, and Walt Disney offer contracts with the exception of Pixar. The standard contract at DW seems to be a 2 picture deal with an option for the studio to opt out of the deal. Don't for a second fool yourself into thinking your protected and that when you sign on the dotted line you'll be employed for the next 3.5 years. With that being said, its quite obvious that the contract only benefits the studio and only serves the purpose of locking ones talent in so that the bonehead executives especially of the dark haired, sit next to an aquarium type or the tall, skinny, anorexic redhead devil sucubus types can than lock you in and forget about you. The beauty of a no contract workplace is that both parties learn to respect what each other has to offer which makes for a healthier relationship in the long run.

I'll end the days rant by saying that all of us are sick and tired of accomodating or appeasing these no talent execs who cant seem to keep there opinions to themselves especially when it comes to anything related to ART.
