I heard MacFarlane already said he wouldn't do it because of the massive time commitment.

Nailed it. Out of context I know I just wanted to be part of something.Quote:

He was the only one laughing.
I don't know Bogey, that's awfully dismissive. Family Guy may not be to your tastes, but that don't make it 'not funny'. And Ted? American Dad? Cleveland? The guy is a cottage industry at this point, he must be doing something right.
Message from VES Chair Jeffrey A. Okun | Visual Effects Society
Some background on the brewing VFX feud that got national recognition when one of the VFX artists from Life of Pi got 'Jawsed' off under the guise of time concerns but more likely censorship as he was about to address the issue.
Quote:
We are at a tipping point in our industry – no matter where you live or work. It has become painfully obvious that while profits abound for producers and distributors, our budgets are being squeezed to the point of jeopardizing our jobs and the quest for a reasonable life style for VFX artists. This was evidenced by the Protest yesterday at
the Oscars. There is just a lot of anger and frustration out there and it has taken tangible form at this time.
Add to this heated time what occurred on the Oscar broadcast when LIFE OF PI wins the award and the team is effectively censored from making any statement about our plight. Not to mention the further insult of the Jaws theme being used.
During the Oscar-cast I received a call from Variety (they amended the article to add my comments). I WAS ANGRY and OUTRAGED. I am still angry and outraged.
Some people think Friends & The Big Bang Theory are funny too.Quote:
