Just another day...

Hey there,

This week's post is a quick one. Not too many things going on lately. Just being watching some tutorials, and really trying to learn as much as I can. I attended a Starz Animation recruiting event on Thursday night for the first time ever. I really only got to drop off my reel for them, since the place with just PACKED with people. And I mean PACKED. I really don't do well with huge shoulder to shoulder crowds, so I just wanted to get in and out as quick as possible. (Thanks to Mike and Linz for coming down there with me too.) It's a shame though, as I would have liked to have talked to at least someone there from Starz. Oh well, maybe I'll get lucky and hear back from them. *crosses fingers*

In other news, I found out shortly after my last post, how I did in the April contest for the 11 Second Club. I placed 40 out of 160, with an overall score of 4.89 out of 10, which is between "Decent" and "Good." I don't really care for how I did and what not, but it's the feedback and everything I learned just from the process that I valued. I highly recommend to any aspiring animator!

That's about it for this time....oh, but I shall leave you with some videos to check out too, because it just doesn't feel right otherwise.
