Oooh! I got a job. :)
Well, okay, I big on and successfully obtained sort of a comission to do pieces of a fake comic for student film. A color comic-book cover and two or three pages inside it. The catch, of course, is that it needs to be done by next Friday. Pays a whopping $25. :)
Still. I feel like its an accomplishment. I showed a portfolio, and displayed knowledge of the output media and arranged a schedule and beat out my competition. Little things like this make me feel like I could possibly make it as an independent commercial artist one of these days, though I'm still about two years away from that at the minimum. A credit on someone else's project is very helpful though. I think on eof the major things lacking in my experience is collaborative projects.
Anyhow... Winter is over! I can tell. My productivity is back up. I'm now at full capacity on projects. Making progresses on the project with
paka even if our meetings keep getting clobbered by my job. Making TONS of progress on Free as a Bird I'm going to cut a rough sound-track after school tonight so I can present the animatic in class tomorrow. During class, I'll work out the concept stuff for this comic-project. I've already got a bunch of good ideas for it and the whole 'in-depth-study' of Preston Blair is really returning huge dividends. After class tomorrow, I'll upload the roughs and get input from the director on what he likes/doesn't like and get his comic done. In the interim, I'll build the storyboard for WireHead, and knock out the woodcutter and some other ideas for the project with Paka.
I have some garden work and housework to do Sunday and then its pure creative time after that. I should be able to knock out the guy's comic stuff in a few hours and get final approval from him, well ahead of his Friday deadline. I think I can get a final cleanup of the Free As a Bird storyboard and timing. From there it's just a bunch of drawing. :)
Before I start on that drawing Free as a Bird I think I'll switch gears and knock out the video of
roon's magic act and the compilation video of stuff for my parents so I can get those off my task list. If I can keep up the pace I've been at this week, I should be able to get all those done and have only Free as a Bird, WireHead, and the project with Paka on my 'to do' list. No problem! :) I've cut down a LOT of projects this week.
