See How Hollywood’s Job Market Is Collapsing (Studios are making fewer movies and shows than they did just a few years ago. The ones they do make are increasingly being shot outside the U.S.)

I wanted to be an animator growing up. Had I finished animation school I would’ve gotten into the industry around the pandemic, then the streaming bubble bursting, and now the consolidation of companies/fear of investing into new properties as they’re not pulling in numbers to give confidence to investors. I’ve seen it with my own eyes it’s not good
Most of US production is dead.
Impossible to overstate how weird it is to walk into a major rental house for a pickup on a tiny job and find out you’re the only show picking up or returning that day.
The streaming boom of the late 2010s kind of masked how the industry was declining. It’s a shame, it gave so many outlets to creatives and made new stars quickly.
Man, this industry can’t catch a break. Hope it gets quite a few of them real soon.
A theatrical output decrease of 40% is bad but it’s the 65% decrease in TV show production that is killing the industry.
And as media companies switch more and more of their yearly content spend to sports rights it’s only going to get worse.
