We've been crunching some numbers and here we have the adjusted rates for the Animation sector 2025. 📊 The chart is divided in quartiles (the 25% that make less, the middle, and the 25% on top) for Junior, Mid and Senior roles.

Have you ever had to chase down invoices and payments on completed jobs? It's a scary reality for artists in the Irish animation industry especially coming up to the notoriously expensive Christmas period. 1/2

As I’ve been saying for over a year: If your business model doesn’t work without violating the law, you’re not in business — you’re in organized crime. Great reporting by @elainelow.bsky.social. theankler.com/p/tv-writers...

TV Writers Found 139,000 of Their Scripts Trained AI. Hell Broke Loose

It's 'organized crime,' says one, as scribes from Shonda Rhimes to Robert King face a system where studio policy and law remain murky
