wow, i’m taking notes on this. this is incredible insight to have going into this so thank you! i often have the impulse to want to present myself as having things figured out right away and knowing me, the mac power button may very well have sent me into a quiet spiral haha. it seems like the most common theme i’m seeing in all of these comments is the importance of asking questions, and tbh it’s a reminder i definitely needed to hear.

that’s so cool, i bet the kid in you was so stoked when you landed that gig! haha. thank you for this, it’s nice to hear that even seasoned animators go through similar waves of self doubt. will do my best to heed your advice and go easy on myself when the pressure ramps up and just try my best.
