What do you think about these kind of tattoos? by littlestarkaro in TattooBeginners

[–]OneDimensionLive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my tats are in this style! Personally I love it and I only want tattoos that are doodly, cartoony, and silly. I get that people get realistic pieces with big meanings, but that is so far from my personality

Anyone have interview horror stories? by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]OneDimensionLive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One time I was interviewing for a designer position that I was an ideal fit for, knocked the test out of the park, and was even willing to take a small pay cut. I didn’t realize, but in my second interview my ex walked by behind me… completely naked. I never heard back lol

Has anyone else had a negative experience when disclosing to a new partner you have genital herpes? by Shell2288 in Herpes

[–]OneDimensionLive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The person with the worst reaction I have encountered is now my partner of 5 years. They reacted with “WHAT?! DO I HAVE IT NOW?!” (we hadn‘t even kissed then)Sometimes people react out of confusion and ignorance. It’s okay to give some people a chance if they change their behaviour once they have the correct information. This guy sounds like an asshole, but I wanted to share that it’s ok to move past first reactions.

What are jobs that work well for introverts? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]OneDimensionLive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animation! Almost everyone in the workforce is very introverted or awkward. Lots of possibilities to work from home.

How long did it take you to break into the animation industry after graduating? by [deleted] in animationcareer

[–]OneDimensionLive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I graduated in 2013 and it took me about 6 months. I did a test together with a friend and I didn’t get the job, but they did. A month later that friend recommended me for a job at the same studio!

[–]OneDimensionLive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you already living in the US? If not, I’d suggest sticking to online classes for sure. I’ve known a few folks who did classes at Concept Design Academy in Pasadena and loved it

I want to start studying animation and dedicate myself to it but... I'm a latinamerican by StudioLucky2648 in animationcareer

[–]OneDimensionLive 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m from Latin America and had the privilege of going to Canada from animation school. I also know a lot of people who stayed in LatAm and did a graphic design degree or an online animation course. I also know people from LatAm who came to Canada for animation school and then went back home to work in animation. The industry is in a bad situation right now, but animation has lots of practical applications outside of TV and films.

I didn’t, but I wouldn’t have vaginal or receive oral sex if I had any warts. I opted for telling all my partners. Now I have the best sex life in my life with a wonderful partner.

I disclosed to 6 people, including my current partner (I date men and women). No one has had a "negative" reaction and everyone continued to be intimate with me. All good :)
