NTM the discrimination against immigrants entering the anim industry bc nobody really understands visas or hire somebody to handle papers for overseas artists. For an industry that's so centralized in one country it needs to get better at processing the influx of intl. talent https://twitter.com/BreenHeath/status/1390693234930823170
I don’t want intl. artists to read this and think they should give up on their dream. The process is difficult on purpose, don’t let it overwhelm you.
No, this is for higher professionals in the industry. If you can foster this type of change in your studio, THEN MAKE IT HAPPEN!
If your studio can’t assist intl or mixed status talent domestically then your diversity and representation mantras don’t mean anything. You can’t champion inclusivity in media if you shut out good artists just because of papers. Make the effort, or take down your AAPI posts.
