Hmm no plans right now, but the job might call me away at anytime.

I'm surprised I made Commander considering how I'm on here for short periods of time.

Hi!!! Yeah I'm back now that the crunch to get this movie submitted is done. Things have been really crazy busy. I got laid-off on the last day of July from that 9-5 internet/web job. In a way its a good thing... its not the job of my dreams... it was supposed to be a side thing until I got a job in the field I wanted to work in. I was stuck in it for over 2 years... lucky for me.. that means I get to collect unemployment as I'm looking for more work! I've got things going on... I moved in August... got my own little place. I still teach drawing on Sundays... started it up again this last Sunday. Got that indie film to finish and get the last payment for... I'm picking up little projects here and there. I just finished doing touch up for someone's website. Getting myself more active on the whole social/job networking thing. Got stuff to go to tomorrow.. Sunday... today is my relax day...

yep yep! The nature of work is different in this industry compared to others. I had 2 years to prepare for it... so I'm all good!

Me too! If it gets in... it's a whole other ball game for me considering that they have given me the title of VFX Supervisor.

You could be the next Matt Jefferies, Or Douglas Trumbull with VFX instead of models, as they did.

You know it! :P

3 years ago if you asked me if I had a real shot of doing this for a living... maybe even doing a little something for Star Trek someday I'd say its a far fetched goal that I dare not put my hopes in for... I'd be lucky to get any interesting work with all the competition out there.

Now... its wow... it just might be possible... gotta hang in there and keep going. Can't stop now!
