A Blog to Discuss the formation of a VFX Digital Artists Guild
Archive for 27th August 2010
Good news from Motion Theory. Tina Van Delden of Motion Theory tells us that they are transitioning away from using MBO as an Employer of Record and are moving to a traditionally structured payroll service, absorbing the cost of doing business. They should have everyone up and running on their new payroll system by September 7th 2010.
FXDAG applauds this move and hopes that other studios which employ freelancers follow suit.
Developing story. Looking for confirmation and details on this.
We recently heard that MBO, a predatory Employer of Record, is pulling out of payroll administration for FX and Animation related business. I’ll post more as I confirm the story and find out more information.
