Man, its true. Im Surprised I can remember my password!!! As much...better said, as little as I log in. I'm always busy studying, work, or showing my little guy the world (southern cali actually). Well, so what has happen lately? I got a chance to work on Smurfs and Harry Potter!!! So now I have 3 films under my belt but still havent got a chance to be a character animator on a film yet. uuuugh!!! Frustrating at times. Its been tough lately, because the last couple of months Ive kind of strayed away from animation to learn some other things in VFX. Its actually to help me get some more things on my reel and learn more to make myself more marketable in the smaller studios. Plus, Im looking to get a condo so I need the extra cash. BUT... Although, not confirmed yet, I should be joining a new set of students and mentors at iAnimate!!! So keep posted!!! but the way I post maybe check every few months lol.
Man, like I said its frustrating when you're really trying hard to get somewhere but I know as long as I keep working at it Ill get there. Its been hard on me over the past few years and I have gone through some really tough times, toughest times of my life so far. Times I dont wish on others, but at the end of the day I tell myself life isnt easy, its meant to be tough. Once you go through the tough situation it toughens you up and prepares for other things that come your way. You just have to keep your tranquility and keep your dream alive no matter what comes your way!!! I sometimes think great people that make it in life always have great stories to tell, I may never be great but Ill have a story to tell and I hope to be an example of when you keep that dream alive and strive for it that you can make it come true. I remember a few years ago, before I had ever worked in anything in the industry, driving to my internship down the PCH looking at the ocean and just telling myself one day Ill be driving to work. Flash forward a few years and it it happen. Small and simple, not over exciting but inspires me to keep going and hopefully in the future Ill be thinking about when I use to write posts of dreaming of working as a Character Animator for a film.
