Solaire 🔜 GATEway FATE 🐏@solairelunaire.bsky.social · last mo.

thinking about the popularity of so many "redraw trends" and plagiarism of compositions by all sorts of artists (it comes up often for gposing but 2D artists do it too). i have to sum up my discomfort with it as follows: it's artists treating other artists the same way A/I treats art as data

I've been struggling to draw on my computer lately which is unfortunate because that is where all my owed art is located. (sorry, progress is slow but moving forward when i can) on the plus side i am learning to crochet just so i can make fishnet sleeves for a concert

Today, we’re publicly sharing that Dual Wield Studio has reached the difficult decision to conduct layoffs. If you’re hiring, please reach out in response to this post or via email to hello@dualwieldstudio.com - our priority is ensuring everyone impacted can find a great new job.

Today, we’re publicly sharing that Dual Wield Studio has reached the difficult decision to conduct layoffs. This is not done lightly; our core ethos prioritizes taking care of our team above all. Candidly, layoffs reflect a failure of leadership sufficiently planning and acting in service of the team. Last year, our current Leadership became aware of our company having operated at a significant income deficit for several years. We informed our team of this concern, and did what we could to mitigate it as much as possible, including the seniormost highest-paid members of Leadership deferring significant owed pay in order to extend more funds to our team. Despite this, without more drastic action, our trajectory endangered our ability to reasonably continue to fairly compensate our team or support them in the event of financial insolvency. Layoffs are that drastic action. Full-time employees impacted by the layoff will receive 6 months severance pay, 6 months medical benefits, and 6 months of tailored outplacement support, with comparable severance offered to our incubation business project contributor. If we cannot continue to fairly employ people, we believe we should at least do what we can to help them find their next job. We’re heartbroken to send away folks who have been part of what makes our team so special, and are committed to doing all we can to sustain Dual Wield Studio by learning from our mistakes to do better. If you’re hiring, these are some marvelous folks for you to consider – please reach out in response to this post, or to hello@dualwieldstudio.com

People, in every field, are watching their careers get burned into ash in favor of a machine that is *allowed* to make vastly bigger mistakes than they would ever be allowed to. The machine can't even get the company's name right, but *you* are hounded over the color of a single pixel, etc.

As far as I can tell the entire gameplay capture team for bungie stuff got laid off (including related Sony peeps). If you want to hire one of the best game capture teams in the biz, we are all now roaming around (and I still am) Posting this cause that team isn’t really a social media crew

Wait!! God damn it!! Contact info on my portfolio site: www.agbouskila.com And I need to say: you can't really call it an honour to be employed, but it WAS an honour to work alongside such sharp, thoughtful, experienced peers. Bungie team, thank you for everything. I'll really, really miss you.

I've been affected by the layoffs sweeping across Bungie. I have a lot of feelings about how things went down, but mainly I'm grateful for the talented people I've worked with closely. Grateful to have had this opportunity as my first industry job. You may be seeing me more often from now on. 🖤
