Exactly. I won't be surprised if sometime in the future, big actors will be digitized and people can put them into a script and make their own films on their computers at home. That's where it looks like it's going to end up eventually.

Make your own James Bond movie with any actor you want--Idris, Dev, Timmy--whoever. Models are just the tip of the iceberg.

Robin Wright made a film with that premise, where she played herself - it was called The Congress.

How weird, I'd never heard of it but yeah, from 2014. It seems like a no brainer to me. It's a matter of getting digital rights and paying people off, or possibly in the future some actors will volunteer to be digitized. I can see that happening.

Nah, I don’t like the idea of robots or avatars replacing human jobs, even if it’s modeling or acting. The working class are losing out to machinery and while it might be more “cost efficient” people are losing they livelihoods. And the models being replaced by these CGI IG models aren’t big name models, they’re the ones who probably model to make ends meet.

not just the models, but the stylists, photographers and makeup artists which become "disposable"

ah, this is a good point that i hadn’t thought of.

Yeah this ^^^

I am going to school for makeup artistry and hair so I can work on movie sets....so many people like me who aims to work within the ntertainment beauty industry will be marginilized to only being a reduced populace beauty worker (ie: bridal makeup artist, quincenara mua, prom work etc...)

idk how to feel about this... but cool.

Conceptualised and created mostly by males I’m assuming? Whatever pushes women that have their own mind thoughts feelings and opinions further and further out of an industry I guess.

Lol I feel like staple is doing a lot of work here.

But I hope it's a fad.
