Quiet, Not Gone

Mon Sep 11, 2006, 5:46 AM
I haven't posted much because I've been working on a lot of other stuff including a website and a massive project for my friends that has stalled out for the moment.

I interviewed for a job at another network last month. It came down to me and some other guy. I didn't get the job (the other guy had prior experience freelancing there), but I got many compliments on my demo reel and I have another contact who knows I can do what I do. It sucks because the job is much better than the one I currently have and I would be making roughly $15K more. C'est la vie. At least I finally got my demo done.

Good news - I was paid for the first website commission. It was a beast of a project and I was paid far too little for it, but the whole experience was definitely worth it - mainly for the practice using Flash, communicating with clients and figuring out the flow of information. There are many things I will do differently next time (like charge more!), but the good thing is that the client is totally estatic about the results. I really need to learn more about web design.

Spinning off the both of those big events, my personal website is in its infancy. I'm taking an hour or two a day at work (where else do I have the time?) to figure out what I want to do and go from there. Ideally, the website will showcase my not only my "art", but it will also be a place where I can host my demo reel and web links for prospective employers.

Too much to do.

Later!

See enough horror and experience enough pain and you become separated from your self.

An artist must create as often as possible. To cease this task is, to the soul of an artist, as ceasing to breathe.

thanks for visiting

I need to get off my ass and submit something soon.

Unfortunately, I've been hella-busy lately at work. Even my "light" days seem heavy and the easy stuff is mind-numbingly tedious. Yesterday, I didn't even get lunch. Luckilly I get overtime for the 4 1/2 hours extra I worked on the project, but damn...LET ME GOOF OFF, PLEASE!

Hey how have you been!? I haven't heard from you in ages! I hope you're doing well!

Curious? :heart:

*smiles* I'm doing okay, and I appreciate your asking. I've just been incredibly busy with various non-art projects and other commitments offline. My job is keeping me extremely busy to the point of near insanity.

I'm out there, trust me. : ) I check out your site at least once a week, if not more. I just tend to be quiet when I don't have criticism better than "it's nice" or "looks good".
