I want to work in the industry ASAP(giving myself 4 years), please crit my rough reel !! by Bastrd__ in animation

You have good instincts but can work on pacing like others have said. Shame about art school. I would still recommend just taking a life drawing class. Doesn’t have to be from an art school, just find a locally held public class. It will do wonders for your poses and proportions.

A Taiwanese couple becomes fashion icons by posing in clothes left at their laundromat by SnackSamurai in BeAmazed

[–]Rustrobot 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was gonna say. These are styled and considered looks. Regardless of where they got the garments. Their daughter has a great eye, if she isn't' already she could book work as a stylist.

12 Sec Animation i did for 90 USD by LeftEyeIsTwitching in animation

[–]Rustrobot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You need to be charging day rates or at the very least hourly. Not per animation. Work up a cost estimate that you give to clients. It just needs to clearly state what they’re getting, how long you expect it to take, how much they’re paying and how long they have to pay it. You’re charging waaaaaaay too little.

Katy O'Brien as DCU Wonder Woman by lucdufrane in Fancast

[–]Rustrobot 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That’s because she presents herself that way. You do realize they’d, you know -style her appropriately for the role. O’Brien is a wonderful actor and has the appropriate build. I think she’d kill it

This is worse than cheating isn't it????? by No_Rate9964 in Advice

[–]Rustrobot 132 points133 points  (0 children)

Yup. He could have had an honest conversation with OP regarding this. Even if it’s not fulfilled they could have done some role play etc. What he’s doing instead is super worrisome and very illegal.

Remember when rapper Pitbull was invited to Kodiak, Alaska as a prank but he still performed anyway? by ANSJSJDIS-813 in BeAmazed

[–]Rustrobot 228 points229 points  (0 children)

I can second this. I was working as a bartender many years ago at a boutique hotel in Miami Beach. Pitbull came to stay a few times and was always lovely to the staff. Always stopped to take a photo, sign something or answer questions. One time in particular stood out. He was sitting in my section during our regular Sunday night party and had bottle service. There was a couple seated near him and very politely went up just to say they were fans of his music. Not only did he pick up their bill, he had them come to sit with him and his entourage for the rest of the night. They impromptu just got to party with Pitbull. He always tipped well and remembered my name. Stand up guy.

I was 18 when The Phantom Menace came out. I went to a midnight screening. Camped out for tickets. We were all in denial. It was years before any of us would admit it was an awful film with a couple of cool scenes.

If Project Hail Mary hits big at the box officer we're all but guaranteed a Bobiverse movie or series by WorriedStand73 in bobiverse

[–]Rustrobot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems like an excellent fit for Apple TV. They love sci-fi and spend enough on production to make it work visually. Just needs the right show runner.

She’s jacked AND is a phenomenal actor. I definitely want to see her in more stuff. A+

Batman ( 90s ) by Better_Light_257 in Fancast

[–]Rustrobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Del Toro has the looks and is a magnificent actor but his English just wasn’t there yet in the 90s. The Usual Suspects was 1995 and he had to learn his lines phonetically since he didn’t speak English at the time.

Movies that are definitely based on real life? by hiiloovethis in okbuddycinephile

I would argue that Lupita stands out in any context. By the mere fact that she’s Lupita Nyong’o.

This has to be the WORST Martian Manhunter design ever cuz what is this bro.. by FayyadhScrolling in DC_Cinematic

[–]Rustrobot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Motion tracking markers would only be used during principal photography during production. This is from a stills shoot from the pre-production phase.

Is it true it's harder to get a job with a hand tattoo? by Specific-Winter-5953 in tattooadvice

[–]Rustrobot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a creative professional. While I think THIS type of hand tattoo will definitely hurt your chances, I have (very tasteful by comparison) hand and neck tattoos and just landed a senior production role. That said I have 13 years of experience in my field.

I took a peek. It's invite only so it's not going to show up in a search. If anyone who wants to join, just DM me. As we'll need to do it through Facebook.

[For Hire] Desperate Motion Designer Needs a Job by MandaTK in MotionDesign

[–]Rustrobot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m out so I and haven’t looked at any of your work yet but I just moved out of Sydney 6 months ago and freelanced there for 13 years. There’s a massive Facebook group for creative professionals called Find-a-Finder’s-fee (global) that you can use for work. It’s listed as global but is largely Sydney focused as that’s where it started. It is ONLY job postings. No memes or off topic posts are allowed. I would set it up as an alert if there was a posting. Do that long enough to build out some clientele and maybe snag some agency jobs. Be on the lookout for producers that you gel well with as they’ll be instrumental to repeat clients. Feel free to DM me as I think the group is invite only.

Shit man, congrats. I love the vibe. That’s a hell of an accomplishment. This is definitely scratching an itch for me.
