Andantonius, who used to hold the position of Art Director at Hi-Rez Studios, brings a rich background to the table. Upon discovering the Artisans Program, his initial enthusiasm turned sour, which he openly expressed as “this is disappointing.” His concern for artists was evident as he urged them to be aware of the potential risks associated with the program. It’s intriguing how someone who once basked in the advantages and recognition within the company has now transformed into a watchdog, warning others, much like a wise owl swooping in to prevent danger. He skillfully breaks down the contract terms that might appear harmless initially but reveal a more menacing truth upon closer inspection. Particularly concerning is Section 4, which sets off alarm bells regarding the possibility of artists working for no more than a roll of the dice on potential profitability. This mirrors the idea that sometimes something that sparkles can conceal darkness lurking beneath.
