It seems you really have a 6th sense about these things. Have you ever considered working with law enforcement?

That's what has always been great about Concept Arts, nothing they do is ever very "conceptual". It's always been style over substance. Oh, the irony...
Not so, Jim-ninny. Concept did some great stuff back when Seiniger and everyone else was just doing big heads in the sky. http://www.impawards.com/designers/concept_arts.html
If you actually worked in this business you'd know that.
(Not defending thievery here, just so fuckin sick of Jim-ninny constantly crapping on everyone.)
Concept is famous for overcharging studios for lunches on photoshoots, horrible customer service and a general smarter than thou attitude without ever delivering on time, on budget and with crap files.
Sure, they have Silver because of Matrix and some gaming but they are such a strange company. Innovation and schlock at the same time. I know personally because I use to have to deal with them when I was at a studio.
Great ideas at times and horrible attitudes and terrible execution.
Yeah, VP is subordinate. There are some sad folks here. You shit on who feeds you. Think anyone at a studio is talentless and that you are some sorts of geniuses? I did everything from production with a t-square and two coat to design and creative in photoshop. I worked my way to a studio rather than get it handed and went from manager to VP while STILL getting my hands dirty.

I stand corrected http://tinyurl.com/47whx88 , but generally speaking, what they most often do is "decoration".

If it weren't for Joel Silver and their video game work I don't know how they still be around.

True that Eye Tallion. After 39 years, there's no way they'd still be around without their clients.

…that is a pretty egregious rip-off though.
Posted by: Cappy | Friday, March 11, 2011 at 10:34 AM
They've just been living off the strength of their legacy portfolio. All the talent involved in those wonderful pieces left long ago.
Posted by: Eye Tallion Stallion | Friday, March 11, 2011 at 12:16 PM
That's because ALL the talent in this business left long ago. Just look at all the client-directed shit that being's dumped out now.

"Have you ever considered working with law enforcement?"... or the Coroner's Department?

You realize that as soon as you wrote "...when I was at a studio" all your credibility went out the window.

You realized when you wrote anything, I stopped giving a fuck? I spent 18 years on the agency side and 10 on the studio. Worry about yourself.

What Dobie said!!! The absolute truth. Suck it, Poo Eater.

“overcharging studios for lunches on photoshoots”
Spoken like a true subordinate.

I know both sides.
What do you know?

What's a "t-square"? Is it anything like Foursquare?
