Well, Ill give a quick in site of whats going down with me. So last year I ended my year working at Blind on a video game trailer. A lot of pressure on that job, being that I was hired as there rigger and then helped out in the animations. The rigging process was the tough part I had only been rigging for less than a year when I got hired and Blind is a pretty prestigious studio in the motion graphics world which I didnt know until I got there. But I got through it and really appreciate being around all the talent and it really helped me grow as an artist.
This year I started my first gig at Buck animating for a couple of days which was cool. Im currently working on my first film. So thats really exciting. Its only for the beginning credits but its one step closer to a full animation feature film which I hope to work on one day. I dont think it has really hit me yet but I cant wait to see it on the big screen. I dont care if I have to go by myself but Im going to go and see it. When I really get deep into it, its an amazing feeling. My work is going to be seen around the world, on the big screen, DVDs, and TV. WOW!!! Maybe not a big deal for others, but c'mon its my first movie!!!
Again, I was hired as a rigger/ animator. I need to be careful though I dont want to get stuck as a rigger. I can appreciate what a rigger does and what it takes to be one because with out rigging theres no animation but Im an animator that happens to know a bit about rigging.
Well, thats my post for today. The best of luck for myself this year as I continue to grow and learn as an artist and keep reaching to become an animator for a feature film.
