Dear DAD, how often to you run into the issue of hiring someone who is unable to fulfil a prompt? Not for the lack of effort, but maybe things just aren't clicking with the person doing the job and what they're delivering isn't meeting your expectations. On that matter, how often do you have to shut a job down and give it to another artists to take over? Do you ever get pieces that you're less than happy with but must be pushed through due to deadlines?
Occasionally. It doesn’t happen too often if the AD is doing their job right and picking the right artists, but everyone shits the bed sometimes. That’s what kill fees are for. If the piece is close, I’ll take over files and adjust the best I can to fit what we need.
