Nothing makes you feel more trapped than being physically unable to drive long distances without the fear of crashing in every meaning of the word.

I’ve had bad days where I fantasize about quitting my animation job and working at a bakery or cafe instead. That shouldn’t be normal..

While I’m not bothered by the design choices of some of these examples, I always wish there was more variety in face/nose/hair shapes- esp more natural thick/curly hair! At least, that’s my opinion- Hunk is a great example here!

I’ve had loved ones pass away and I STILL storyboarded and later apologized for the quality of my work despite, yknow, working through my GRIEF. Bc there’s this pressure to perform at your 100% at all times, or else….

Having to design sets and characters based on vague general directions with zero reference is terrible. There’s a talented team of designers for a reason!!! And last I checked I was just a storyboard artist with a 5 week turnaround

I’ve had days and weekends where I sleep maybe four/five hours tops, napping on my beanbag bc it’s better not to get too comfortable or I won’t be able to get back to work

All the meta verse news reminds me of my professor who made every student come to class in second life on his little virtual island and yes, it was terrible
"omg u do art for a living, must be so fun!"
A dream job is still a job. And just like any other, each one comes with its fair share of Good Things and Bad Things. It's a ""dream job"" and its all about doing what you love! At what cost..? :,)

The pandemic caused an undeniable shift in working conditions and expectations, and we never faltered or failed to deliver- but at what cost? To show solidarity with animation workers, please quote tweet with your favorite GIF from any cartoon plus the hashtag
