VFX Giant MPC and Parent Company Technicolor May Shut Down Amid 'Severe Financial Challenges'

Sigh.

😳

very much directly affected by this one, it's a very strange situation to watch unfold

Technicolor was always such a strange company. Any chance MPC and the Mill can spin out with new backers?

In terms of head count, this is how big MPC & The Mill were in June 2024, according to Visual Effects World Atlas:

I remember when I went to Siggraph the year I graduated and MPC had a recruiting booth. The line went out of the room it was so long.

Eek

I'm never getting a job again am I? 😔

Sure you will; just probably not in VFX anytime soon
