Sort of? I’m primarily a 3d animator, but I’ve been diving more into doing vfx with actually filmed stuff. Im a pretty small time animator, mostly just make fun internal videos for the company I work for.

I’ve never done an AMA before but I might be willing give it a go some time. Unfortunately I might be limited on actual examples of my work because so much is has company branding and has my irl name tied to it, not trying to expose too much of my irl self.

Yeah little single frame errors like that are just not worth the time fixing and re-rendering. And a lot those little errors are the vfx blindness setting in.

When you’re a VFX artist and you’ve been looking at the same scenes for hours a day for weeks on end, constantly scrubbing back and forth across your timeline, you just become blind to errors and mistakes and technical glitches beyond the really obvious one.

You just need a second set of eyes or put down that specific part and look at it again later with fresh eyes.

Exactly this. People often use “female” because it’s a dehumanizing word.

Hey if that’s your jam go for it, personally I’d like to live in a world where someone can elect to do that sort of work and not have to worry and stress about housing, food, bills etc or take on that kind of work despite hating it in order to put food on the table.

If needing to pay for basic necessities weren’t a factor in people getting jobs, I highly doubt the majority of people would work the kinds of jobs of today. I don’t know a single person who is excited to go into their retail job and deal with shitty customers all day or sit in a bland cubicle all day making spreadsheets that nobody really cares about.

I know more people who would much rather devote their time to learning and playing instruments, or making something with their own hands, or writing stories, or spending time raising their families.
