    A few non-union background have already been scanned for video games. It seems like a good deal; you get 10 hours pay for about five minutes of posing.

      Great deal. You get 10 hours pay, they get perpetual use of your likeness for all eternity and you don’t have to work ever again! Great deal for somebody.

        I love the term 10 hrs pay too. 10 hrs pay of what? $20/hour? CA min wage of $15.50? Fed min of $7.25/hour?

        Even the median wage ($30/hr) would only be $300 (pre tax), what does that get you, a week’s worth of rent?
