Hmmm, I've never seen this thread. Is anyone here actually curious about my job?

Currently full time student (16 credit hours) and part timer at Trader Joe's. Also martial artist, w/ black belt in yunmudo tae kwon do. Currently studying Shorin-ryu orthodox under Tim Vandenover. Great guy, has trained with the best, and is a big Star Wars nut/Trekkie (would never have expected that of him).

I...am a former 2D ( drawing ) animation artist who screamed and whined and resisted the fact that computers were taking over animation. I spent most of last year learning computer animation and now that I'm finished learning it, I have decided never to touch it again. Yay!

I am getting back into the business of being SERIOUS about my art for a change. I haven't been trying very hard for the last 4 years because well, i was really depressed and angry about CG. I thought it basically killed my career, but the truth is, I LET IT. I became scared of computer animation, so much so, I stopped drawing.

So now...all my CG files are trashed. My copy of Maya is uninstalled from my computer, and my stack of dust-covered colored pencils ( all 3000 of them ) are now being dusted off. Sketchbooks are being opened again.

DAMN THE COMPUTER! ( Except when I can connect to this board ) AND DAMN ALL TECH-NERDS EVERYWHERE! ( i'm sure you're nice people but damn you :} )

To tell you the truth, I miss 2D animation. I mean some of todays 3D movie are great but I miss those 2D movies by Disney, Bluth, and all those other animators; those were the movies I grew up with. It's a shame that there are a few 2D movies made these days.

yeah I totaly agree, half of the CG movies that are out now could have easily be 2D and I would prefer that way too. I miss 2d animation, I actually like it better than 3D unrealistic looking movies.

It's funny. Now studios are even banking on the failure of American animation in previews for japanese animated ( drawn ) films, like in this preview for the upcoming PAPRIKA.

http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony/paprika/trailer/

It's actually very depressing. Cartoon Brew put it best when they described american animation as moribund.

The dictionary definition of moribund is

1. in a dying state; near death.
2. on the verge of extinction or termination.
3. not progressing or advancing; stagnant

It's not like we American animators haven't been TRYING to get more adult films made. We just aren't the ones with the money. We have to rely on pitching to executives who hold our careers in their hands.

Japanimation is just easily taking over the animation business. Thats why I dont have that much respect for anime as much as I use to.

I work as a Customer Service Representative at the JC Pennys cataloge call center. For customers I take orders, solve problems, file complaints, fill out forms, and hang up on prank calls.


On the side, I'm a freelance computer animator. I have already done several logos for local buisnesses, and assisted in compositing a few commercial ads. I'm not too well known right now, so jobs in this area are few and spread apart.

There's truly nothing wrong with anime. I'm just sick of it being the ONLY 2D animation on tv these days, and the one animation every young kid asks me about when i say I'm an animator.

"OH! Have you seen NARUTO???" *shudder*

( i don't count things like fosters or the majority of shows on cartoon network. Those are still aimed primarily at kids, while the "adult" shows are really nothing more than extended drug trips ( aqua teen, etc ) that go nowhere, make no sense, and look like they were drawn by a 4 year old. And I'm sorry. When i saw the ATHF episode all about ripping of people's D***, I almost threw myself in front of a train. I mean why even bother learning to draw well when that kind of crap pollutes the airwaves?

I liek anime, Ive always thought that they are way better than our current cartoons. its just that I hate that we cant do anything better, or rather we are not allowed it seems like.

Well, maybe you could harass the studios with fan mail telling them to option Camp Lycanthrope LOL It worked when they were gonna cancel Quantum Leap

I can just imagine a typical phone call from a PACK member to a studio head now...

"Say Mr. or Mrs. film studio executive, have you ever heard of this kewl film by this guy, it's about werewolves. And it-Hello? Hello? Dude! They hung up on me!

Theres always emails. you think that would work?

What if all of us and some people from other forums(like werewolfcafe)were to write emails to a producer to make camp lycanthrope in 2d ofcourse.

I wouldn't care if it were 2d or 3d. as long as it got made. Thing is, a producer would probably insist that it be 3d these days.

Damn 3D!

Well anyway what do you think about everyone sending emails to a producer?
