don't call it a comeback

Well, it's the one month anniversary of me not posting on my blog, so to commemorate this momentous occasion, i'm.... posting on my blog.

So, for all 2 of you that actually still look at this page, here's the things that have been going on in my life for the past month.

I've been working part time at VanArts as a teacher's assistant in the CG classes. Just when i thought i could get away, they pull me back in..... Actually, it's good, because this time they pay me instead of me paying them. It's pretty easy work too, I just basically have to stay one step ahead of the students, and be able to figure out how to solve problems.

I've also been working part time on an internship with Yummy Interactive, a local video game company, along with Hallis, Shawna, and Fatou (some of my classmates). We're working on a demo for a video game based on a popular children's book. It's pretty fun, and we get a lot of creative input. Mostly i've been working on background design and kind of honing in on the art style but by the time we're done i will have done some animation (in Flash) too. It's not a paying job right now unfortuantely, but if all goes well when we're done the demo, that should change.

Aside from that, i'm looking for a full time job, starting work on my own character in Maya, and trying to come up with ideas for characters that would work well to animate in Flash. I need to get some more Flash skills under my belt (and on my demo reel), in case i ever want to get a job in that field. Don't necessarily want to get stuck in 3d animation, if'n you know what i mean. Always good to keep my options open. If'n you know what i mean. Know what i mean?

By the way, i've enabled word verification for comments, in order to keep those spamming bastids away from my blog.
