Laura,

Thank you for applying for the animator position, however we have filled it with someone else. But, they have no drawing experience. And we do need someone to re-draw a few images for this animation. Most of it is done, but a few shots need to be changed. If interested, we can meet up this Monday to talk aobut it.

Thanks,

Lora.

Not sure how to feel about this yet.


Ah, sorry--the animation position is for effects animation, not like. The animation we all think of when the word pops up. So that kind of just means my AE skills weren't impressive enough but they want me to draw shit for them. And I'm feeling kind of bitter and not really up for it, but do I really have the leeway to be like that in this economy?

Probably not.

So this is me waiting for them to tell me when to show up after the shoe job on Monday. :\

But, they have no drawing experience um.
That sucks. :\

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

LMAO yeah idk.

[pridefall.livejournal.com]

Thus is the state of the industry, I think.

=/

You know we all think that job was made for you.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Yeaaahhh I guess. We'll see what can be salvaged of it on Monday.

[bwhahahabeck.livejournal.com]

seconded

[ruffwriter.livejournal.com]

Well, if you really impress them, they might take an interest in you...?

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

I guess we'll see tomorrow or something.

[hotforbabyleg.livejournal.com]

I LOVE JOB HUNTING

...They have no drawing experience?

what the hell man? No. Seriously. wat. i don't even. /brings out the shotgun.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

LMAO yeah it's not for standard drawing animation, it's more for special effects, so I guess my AE stuff wasn't up to snuff or something. 8|;;

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

MY LIFE

[youngavenger.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry what XD; no drawing experience? I'm just wondeirng what exactly they mean by that...

I think you should still go for it. Maybe they will be impressed by you and maybe keep you in mind for future projects!

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Special effects needs no drawings olol

Yeah I might as well. I JUST DON'T WANT TO GET LOST IN DETROIT I'D SCREAM.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

I will do my best o/

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

How does that even work. :| I say you should go for it~

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

WELL I GUESS IF THEY REALLY WANT TO HIRE TWO PEOPLE TO DO ONE JOB I CAN'T STOP THEM more money for everyone else or something. Yeah.

[expletives]

I will admit I am confused. But I'd suggest going in and doing whatever they ask, doing it well, and basically forcing them to realize that you'd be a great addition to the team. Because we know you would. ♥

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

I will try to not go insane

[nuclearpez.livejournal.com]

There are plenty of 'drawing' jobs that you can find I'm sure! And hey, at least they still want you to draw things for them so you are still getting a job out of it. And as said, in this economy, better to get something than nothing.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're right. Beggars, choosers, etc.

[jupiterk.livejournal.com]

well thats
weird.....

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

LMAO..,

[candlejack.livejournal.com]

I am going to guess that person is someone's cousin or niece or son or granddaughter or what have you. That's how the world goes round and round, that is. However, you still should go to the interview. It could prove to be a good opportunity for you, just make sure they credit your and don't screw you over or some shit.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

It's either that or they know how to work AfterEffects better, which I wouldn't be surprised by at all. I'll go. If I can find it. And parking.

I hate Detroit..,

[bambooanime.livejournal.com]

At least it's in a field you're interested in? Either way would look good on the resume~

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Right about that one.

[squareorange.livejournal.com]

No drawing experience.

.....Huh.

Good luck with whatever they give you, anyway!

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

YeAH.,

Thanks babe

[aymiah]

... yeah that sounds like a job on the side where they don't pay you as much and um. no.

kind of like saying 'OH HEY WE HIRED SOMEONE WHO KIND OF SUCKS BUT WE LIKE HIM ANYWAY.
-- BUT WE COULD STILL USE YOU FOR SOME SMALL THINGS IF THAT WILL GET YOU TO RESPECT US AND OUR BUSINESS SKILLS STILL.'

:| yeahno



I guess see what they have to say, though. Maybe you'll talk to someone else who has more tact and wants you for your own skills, not just for some tidbits.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Can't hurt anything anyway except my mileage derp

[dreadable.livejournal.com]

*useless*

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Imissyou

[renuki.livejournal.com]

They have no what!?

What the hell do they have then? *head tilt*

(But, well..at least you will be getting paid and you can look around for something better.)

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Probably the special effects skills the job calls for, olol.

[opto-alatus.livejournal.com]

Go for it. If someone has no DRAWING experience (WAT) then how the hell do they make anything look good I mean what does that even mean


anyway, I know exactly what you mean. I'm trying to be picky because I know I'm better than what I've come across... but now's not really the time to be picky.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Yeah I mean. It's one thing to be able to make the effect. It's another to know how to apply it in a way that makes sense to the piece. :\ Idk. Whatever mang. It looks to be a small job and the EXP can't hurt.

[olesia]

Might as well, right? All you'll lose is a little time, and there's much more to gain.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

*stares Detroit down...

[ladybrick.livejournal.com]

See icon.

Of course, it's experience for your resume and a possible foot in the door, and that's better than a lot of people are doing these days?

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Icon for icon!

Yeah, you're right.

[teal-deer.livejournal.com]

RESUME CRED MAN, TAKE IT

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

O-OKAY I'LL TRY
