Career Choice

Thursday involved a talk from a compositor (I am sorry dude, I am very bad with names) from The Moving Picture Company - Check their websites, they’ve been involved with VFX from Harry Potter, Watchmen, and they did the dancing baby advert. It was a very inspiring talk, but the key point was that it made me remember that I will have to choose a specialization at some point.

Modelling - Character modelling, environment modelling, asset modelling; so far, I haven’t really enjoyed modelling, keeping poly’s neat or low is just a pain in the ass. Rigging - @_@ Honestly, it’s a drag! Texturing, Lighting, Post-Production ; Compositing….Pre-production; story boards, character design, concept art…

So far I am being more and more attracted to the idea of 3d compositing…but it may become too much of a hurdle.

And knowing that studying this in university is a potential dip of money for no reason. I am going to just promise to use that time to pay attention to what field I will focus on and developing an awesome show reel.
