During a period of 2+ years, Cover:
- Made contractors do extra work (e.g., extra revisions), without sufficient justification (as per contract terms), without providing additional payment for that extra work.
- Had late payments, including some payments late by over 300 days (!!).
In response to the guidance received from the Japan Fair Trade Commission, Cover:
- Will cease their heinous criminal activity and follow the rules now.
- Has resolved late payments, with interest.
- Will attempt to rectify processes / training / etc that lead to the situation happening.
- Will check if there are any other oopsies.
- Will tell everyone they fucked up and what they’ve done about it.
- Will report back to the Commission.
Yup, it seems pretty big… and it’s not like they debuted THAT many talents in that period, how did they manage to screw up payments for 29 contractors?
Hopefully now it’s all sorted out, considering the stuff Anycolor already does, if Cover was found to be doing shady stuff too it would be a big trust problem in the industry, both for talents and riggers/artists.
