Ready to Record

On today's episode of Ready to Record, The D3 talks to Inferno VFX and VFX Unleash's own Dante Rinaldi. Daniel and Dante continue their conversation on rooms and their importance to recording, and talk about a pretty universal phenomenon across all forms of artistry: burnout. This topic allowed Dante and Daniel to show the parallels between work in music and work in visual effects: no matter what, artistry is artistry. Likewise, any form of artist, be them musician, painter, producer, or VFX designer, burnout and competition are always present in our worlds.
