Ryzin Art's policy when a team member is upset or frustrated is to have an open conversation about the issue, unfortunately in this case this person clearly is disgruntled, and we were not able to have such conversation.
We are proud to be able to be approachable and open to feedback and conversation, this person has never reached out to us to discuss or to request a credit change - something that is often fixable if that person was left out by mistake or any other reason. That being said, we have no reason to leave someone out of a credit intentionally. If you're an artist you have to actually create art for the project that is not completely thrown out due to bad quality to get a credit - this is pretty common practice in this industry.
Ryzin Art's policy is that pay increases are given out based on a team members performance, this team member's performance was consistently lacking and not up to our strict standards, even with careful coaching and feedback and ample opportunity to improve. We are a small company that values our team's health, and we do everything we can to keep them happy.
We, being a service provider, the work we produce is the Intellectual Property of our clients not ours (or yours). Credits and or publicly showing artwork are at the sole discretion of our clients.
To add, this person was let go due to frequent mistakes, being late on assignments, and in general, very poor performance.
Our feedback for you is to take the time to educate yourself and focus on learning and getting better as an artist.
