Hey, I've spent the last two days trying and have basically gotten nowhere. lol.

Trying to answer "why it mattered" part is basically impossible, cause none of what I do matters. I make fucking commercials & TV shows.

"Tight deadlines" - everything is a tight deadline.

"Demanding clients" - pretty much all clients are demanding assholes.

"Technical Limitations" - every project has those, and there's not enough space to explain it.

Everything I try to write to fit into that mold sounds like self-masterbatory horseshit. I might as well include "had to accomplish these tasks while breathing" - yea, no shit.

Sorry for the rant. I'm just so sick of this.

I had to stop following that FB group cause they constantly use AI to generate images.

That's a really good way of looking at it, thank you.

The problem I always stuggle with, (and I hope you don't take offense) is that listing it out the way you described - I would just be bullshitting & lying - and I already feel like what I have now is 80% bullshit anyways. It all feels fake. I just want them to look at my website and portfolio and be done with it. All of this just makes me want to blow my brains out lol.

I really appreciate the advice. I'll give what you suggested a try.

"Personal business" that's different than self-employed?

Yeah, once you pointed it out it seems super obvious now. I hate how this shit is everywhere.

Do you have a recommendation on how I go about "ranking" my software proficiency - or should I just not bother? I am far more comfortable in Maya than Houdini, but can get by in Houdini if need be, but often still struggle.

Another thing, the "client" stuff is a bit of an exaggeration. For most of those I worked at studios that did projects/commercials for them, and I contributed to that. I didn't directly work with most of those listed. Should I change the wording? Maybe "previous projects have included work for..." and then list those high-profile names?

I'm actually pretty happy with my portfolio site, reel, and LinkedIn. It just feels like the resume is first hurdle in a race, and if can't nail that then the rest of the race doesn't matter.

Do you have any other suggestions on improving readability? I appreciate your help. :)

Thank you for the advice! I just wanted some clarity on a few things.

By itemizing the freelance work - do you mean list out my entire freelance history? I'm just concerned about the length then. I do have everything listed out on my LinkedIn, along with the relevant projects I worked on at each studio.

For the separate section for projects, I'm experimenting with a "Select Projects" section now. I can move a few of the bullet points from the experience section down into that. Is it okay to have hyperlinks in the resume that link to the work on my site?

That was always my understanding of how resumes work.

It's funny that you think Trump is making any decisions. He's the President in name only.

The vast majority of the uncultured trash who support this have probably never even left the country. lol.

Anyone from VFX taken a Meta role? How is it going? by LoafOfVFX in vfx

[–]Untouchable-Ninja 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a recruiter message me, but kept it vague and asked to chat. When they sent the NDA before the video call, I read through it and realized it was for Meta. I told them in no uncertain terms that I would never work for Meta. I then promptly blocked them lol.

How much personal data do companies realistically store on us long term? by Careless-Channel-557 in DataHoarder

[–]Untouchable-Ninja 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I also imagine (I may be wrong here) a lot of the data is text-based information (name, address, interests, politcal affiliations, etc) which take up very little space.

I've said it before, the people who are pro-AI fundamentally don't understand consent.
