Working a real job 01

So a few weeks ago I finally landed a full time "real" job in my field (not that freelance isn't a real job but... you know). I've been learning a TON and our studios are relatively close to where I live so I can just ride my bike every day which is totally a plus seeing as though I don't own a car...

Anyway, so today I get to work and I have a chance to sit down with some of our story board artists. Apparently they are in from New York to get some work done. Although I've been working with their storyboards since day-one of me working here, meeting with them really opened up my eyes to the behind the scenes aspects of story telling. I understood what their job was before this meeting HOWEVER I've never seen them work through some of the story's problems in person. Their workflow and ideas are brilliant. These guys are seriously master story-tellers and I feel so honored to be able to be part of their world. Luckily I'll get access to their ideas in person all week!


It's amazing how much you can learn while on the job. I think that I like this field of work more and more each day. The more I learn the more I'm convinced that I chose the right school, focus, city to live in, and so on. I mean how blessed am I to be absorbing and learning from these skilled artists and to be sitting right beside them as part of a team that is slowly bringing a huge piece of art to life?

So far so good.
We could be closer than you know,
