Ogre to Slay? Outsource It
FUZHOU, China - One of China's newest factories operates here in the basement of an old warehouse. Posters of World of Warcraft and Magic Land hang above a corps of young people glued to their computer screens, pounding away at their keyboards in the latest hustle for money.

It's kind of weird seeing that no industry can escape the capitalistic modern approach of finding the cheapest possible way to manufacture the product, even at the expense of poeple's way of life - as long as they're not from the same country.
What's bugging me about this, is that (much like cartoons) there's just something off about outsourcing art. I mean, as future visual artists working in the field, doesn't it feel wrong when producers prefer the cheapest possible way of making something, at the expense of any kind of attempt to treat it as more than just a product?
