VFX Artists! I have a big ask. I need your help! 🙏 I need a moment of your time in order for us to continue to shape the future of ActionVFX through a research study that I'm conducting! Ever since the beginning back in 2016, we have always put surveying VFX Artists at the forefront of anything we've built. (Putting the end-user at the start of the process. Weird, right? 😜) And today is no different! I know that this is a season where unfortunately a lot of VFX Artists have a bit more time on their hands due to slowed production. And while this survey doesn't explicitly focus on the current economical status, having as many submissions to this as possible greatly influences the impact we're able to have on your specific career long-term. Who is this survey for? 👇 Visual Effects professionals that have used ActionVFX at some point in their career. Whether as a VFX Producer, VFX Coordinator, etc! It's estimated to take about 6 minutes to complete. But I've made it as streamlined and painless as possible. 😄 After completion, it would mean the absolute world if you would share this with your industry colleagues. This research period will only run for a short time, so we're trying to gather as much information as we can. We have some huge plans for the end of 2023 into 2024. And I can't wait to show them to you! 🔥 🚀 Link to Research Survey: https://lnkd.in/gnubQWsm #VFX #visualeffects #postproduction #2d #3d #animation #compositor #vfxsupervisor #vfxartist  #vfxcoordinator

Good morning all! ✨ I’m Monica Julian, a 3D Animator based out of NC. My speciality is creatures and quadrupeds, but I do have experience with animating humans as well. I also have self-taught experience with FX simulations. I’m open for remote work, but willing to consider relocating! Please feel free to reach out with advice or connections. ~~~ I’ve recently been cutting back hours from my day job at a donut shop to focus on polishing my skills in animation. I love it here and the great workplace culture; but at the end of the day it’s not where I want to be with my career. I’ve been putting in time working on pieces for my portfolio but find that I’m hitting a wall when it comes to reaching out, building connections, asking for advice, etc. I have so many colleagues that are right here with me, yet it feels so strange to reach out for advice and to sell my skills (I guess I’m humble to a fault). So, this is me doing that intimidating thing! I value transparency and honesty and that’s what I will always provide on this platform. It’s disheartening to see so many job postings yet they aren’t for entry level and I know I don’t have the listed experience they want for higher positions. At what point do you apply anyway and hope for the best or not apply to avoid the risk of employers not taking you seriously right off the bat since you know you don’t qualify? That being said, I ask/encourage whoever is reading this to consider commenting advice, constructive criticism, or anything you’d like to share about your experiences. Thank you all in advance! I appreciate you for taking a moment to read and engage— it means a lot! ✨ #animation #animator #creatureanimation #junioranimator #animationindustry #advice #enteringtheworkforce #animationadvice #commentbelow
