There was a time when actors all over the world could make a living performing on stage. Then technology came along and made it so all those ticket sales which would have gone to many more actors at the local level went to an elite few starring in movies. What a single Hollywood actor makes could employ dozens of local actors.

You can still go see great actors at the local level, but they are almost always volunteers.

Not defending ai what-so-ever, but this happened before.

One of the most realistic parts of Lord of the Rings is that almost no one wanted to get involved, until it was very nearly too late.

@HeatherCampbell Would be great to see you come back!

@anastasiaart I accidentally discovered this when I was a kid borrowing my grandfather's video camera. It had a very nice optical zoom lever and I'd move toward something while zooming away. Basically my whole life I knew how they did this effect in movies and felt like I was some sort of genius for doing it when I was 9. Lol

Little did I know they were doing this decades before I was even alive.

Sorry, I've got plans already. Maybe next time?

@misty Sleeper cell code. The people who needed to see it, saw it.
@johnmarcellus That's pretty legit!
@TheEddieShow Oh wow, I've been going through un-reposting stuff because I thought those pics were gone.
