Finding Hobbies

Posted in Personal | 1 comment

I’m getting pretty settled into work life. Everyday has a challenge and I’m learning a lot. I’ve been digging into a lot of Maya API programming and Python scripting both of which are turning out to be pretty powerful. When I was first starting my job, I was expecting to get a lot of grunt level work but I’m happy to say I’ve been getting a lot of cool assignments thrown my way. After a lot of college jobs serving people, I can easily say that I am happy with my career choice.

One of the benefits of not being in school anymore is that when I’m off work, I don’t have to do anything. When I was in school, I was always working on my reel or learning on my own.  Now that I don’t have to do that anymore, I am free to take up other hobbies. To give myself something to do, I signed up for a bunch of personal training sessions with this guy. I’ve been working out at my current gym for a couple years now and at other gyms for the past 6 years but this will be my first time with a trainer.  He said that I have good genes because of my build and I’ll shoot up about 15 pounds over the next 2-3 months.  Whoa! Hopefully, I won’t end up looking like this guy.

My First Week in the CG Industry

Posted in CG | 2 comments

I just finished my first week at Imagemovers Digital. All I can say is I love it. Confucius was right when he said, “Find a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” I’ve looked forward to every day of work this past week. Not a day has gone by where I haven’t seen something amazing. I’m surrounded by some of the best in the industry and there’s so much I can learn. It was kind of intimidating being thrown into the midst of so many talented people. But it keeps me motivated and eager to learn more. It’s kind of weird thinking I’m going to spend the next couple years of my life working on a movie. But when I see my name roll up in the credits, it’ll all be worth it.
