AIM has shut down and will not re-open.
 
Someone sent this in to me.

Opinion/Editorial

Employees have been laid off and they will not re-open. They are flat broke with all their legal bills. PWL has nothing to do with it. They are just simply out of money and in debt. There use to be all this talk about how much money they make which is all bullshit. And you will notice that nobody in the industry is coming to their rescue. Is the industry safer now that the AIM critics have got what they wanted?

Slightly OT:interesting blog posts. Quite an interesting editorial angle.

Still open and you still have talent testing services. People will still be getting tested and people will still be shooting. Its just going to move more underground.

AIM Is Gone For Good Period
By MikeSouth
April 21st, 2011

I have been hearing this since they shut the doors for "remodeling" last week I have now confirmed it.

AIM is shutting down all services, including the satellite draw stations. They will process everything currently in the queue and then that will be it. they have laid off all employees.

Word is AIM simply can't recover from the database breach. Unofficial word is they are afraid of being sued by the performers over the lack of security regarding the data. Presumeably they would have insurance that would cover that, but hey we are talkin AIM here.

I'm also hearing the are dancing in the cubicles at Talent Testing and at AHF

as much shit as AIM takes from critics I would be very worried for anybody working as talent in LA without an organization like AIM with a central database.

Is there a verdict on this yes? AVN said that maybe they are closing as well.

Anything confirmed or are they still under construction?
