Night Owl Chatterboxes - Part XLV!

a lot of economists have foreseen the meltdown of the US economy...
comes from a whole lot of things like a totally out of control debt, US$100 per barrel oil prices, and lots of other things combined..
add to that, a crapload of debt owned by countries like PRC who may decide to go to the euro..
it's kinda scary..Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:And the Dow's down 150 points since the start of trading today. -

How do you feel about those foreign studios?
I don't want to comment on Singapore, other than that I don't think the stuff that's come out of there has been noteworthy. But I will say that I think Canada – meaning Ocean – has done great work. I actually supervised some Gundam series that Bandai was doing with them, and there are a lot of great people up there.
Is it upsetting that this is work that could be going to you, but instead it's going to foreign companies that are doing it for a much lower price? Odex in Singapore does their dubs for a fraction of what American companies charge.
Well, it's cyclical. I'm not going to begrudge an anime company – if their focus is the bottom line and not quality, then that's their business. I run my business how I want to run it. But as I said, it's cyclical. I think they are getting what they pay for with some of those foreign studios, and we'll hang on and see how it goes. So far it's working out OK for us. -
i think around next week, Cowboy Bebop starts to get dark..
it's Session #19 today.. -
