Hundreds More Layoffs Incoming At VFX Firm DNEG
DNEG layoffs are incoming with hundreds set to be fired from the 'Dune' & 'Oppenheimer' VFX firm.
Layoffs are understood to be somewhat concentrated within R&D teams and are a response to the challenged market, which has not eased up since the Hollywood strikes ended and has not improved sufficiently after DNEG brought in a pay offer for staff last year. In the UK, where sources say the number of layoffs is predicted to be around 100, Bectu boss Philippa Childs said the union is “continuing to do everything we can to support our members who are affected by these redundancies.” DNEG is a VFX behemoth with recent credits including Dune: Part Two, Oppenheimer and The Last of Us, while it has won Oscars for the likes of Inception and Tenet.
