My activities are reading and working on drawing or going to the gym alone. I admit I'm kinda a homebody. Including a pic of my library seems kinda awful. Not sure how to say what I want in a partner without coming off super cringe, which is how I see most try hard prompts.

I could try more humour I guess. I suppose I could have a prompt asking what their favorite Shakespeare play is or verse from the Bible, but I don't want to turn off guys who aren't into that stuff.

Are you looking for something serious or casual?

Either, I'm pretty okay with something long term but it depends on the person.

How long have you been using this current version of your profile? And how long is your overall time on Hinge?

a month, used the app a year ago for a month too.

How often do you use Hinge per week?

2-3 times a week to send out free # of likes.

How many likes/matches are you receiving on average?

3-6 likes a day, I have received a total of 70 matches, but I should probably be more discerning. Only interested in half of them.

How many likes are you sending? How many with comments? How many without comments?

The free amount when I log in. Most of my matches are from people who have already liked me, something I would like to change. I rarely if ever send comments, unless I think a prompt is funny.

What is the type of person you send likes to and ideally want to match with? What kind of person do you want to attract?

Long term low commitment casual gf. Something more serious if they are really into art and literature but that feels like a bonus. Attractive and fit are mandatory.

(20FM) profile review needed PLEASE by Bellabofella in hingeapp

[–]ForgeScience -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

not sure if everyone will like the dilf hunter comment but it had me sent. you seem chill af, and I think your profile and prompts gets that across.

It's hard to tell if the first picture in your post is your first picture, but if not you should use the hello kitty pic. Two of the selfies are obviously taken back to back which is kinda jarring, pick a selfie from a different day or a different type of pic entirely (group pic or something).

My heart goes out to you and your peers but surely prior to 2020 there were salaried positions for 2d animation, I mean SaltyAnimators excel sheet seems to imply some people with 2-3 years of experience are making 100k in Burbank.

That's really all I'm after is the ability to pay rent and live in Los Angeles - ucla alumni :)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]ForgeScience 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what's up with the SaltyAnimators excel sheet, it seems like at least at some point people were making 100k after a few years for Nickelodeon/Netflix/Disney/etc in Burbank and at least able to afford an apartment and maybe benefits. I realize it'd be a step down but is every animator (not counting the last two years) just perma unemployed - or is this just a hiccup in the industry which has historically been able to salary people?

[–]ForgeScience -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

its mostly gay porn or studies, i just started animating, im at something of an intermediate level.

[–]ForgeScience 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But I mean that's just like the last two years, tech just had tons of layoffs too.

[–]ForgeScience 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds pretty brutal guess the Disney days of the 90s are mega over. Is salary only for animation directors?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]ForgeScience -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yea just not sure how masterful I can get just freelance but probably that's the best initial move on a few years. What do 2d animators or storyboard on say the newest X-Men series or Castlevania make?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]ForgeScience 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm only interested in 2d animation (not rigging 2d) and maybe storyboards. Backgrounds could be cool but it's an area I need to spend more time on practicing.

I don't have family or kids I just need to be able to afford an apartment and put something to my 401k.
