Does anyone know what current state of the VFX/Game Studios during the pandemic is right now?

I wanted to make a separate thread to discuss this.

So we all know Corona-chan is shutting down businesses left and right, but basically any job that is based around computers is still functioning.

But given the nature of Video Games/Movies using their own proprietary technology and operating under Non-Disclosure Agreements, how exactly are people still working these jobs?

Are most people still expected to go to their studios, or do companies actually trust these developers to work from home?

I work from home anyway as our studio is 100% remote.
So far no disruption noticed by me.
I understand when it came to freelancers/remote studios nothing really changes.

But what is happening at bigger places like Pixar or Rockstar games?

These places have hundreds of employees who usually work in a big office building. I'm trying to find information on what they're doing during the panic.
