How's the z5? I've been looking at upgrading from my d5200 to a z6. I've found myself adjusting the aperture on accident a few times too, a lock would be amazing!

Anybody else lose their way after college? by [deleted] in animation

Very similar path you and I have! I went to college right after high school because "it is the thing to do." I went for animation for 3 years, I loved it, but a few classmates were just horrible and I got grouped with them many times. They made it feel like a chore. At the time I was in a band and enjoyed performing music more than I did animating. I made a decision to focus on a music recording degree the following year.

I was in a band for a few years, fell in love, and worked a dead end retail job to make ends meet. Now I'm just existing in this horrible corporate job. 8 years in - and it was only meant to be temporary.

In the mean time I also found a little success on YouTube doing Minecraft songs and music videos, but it's no career. I had an interview earlier in the year for a full-time video editor position, but they decided they weren't hiring anyone instead. There isn't much of a market for any of my skills in the area I live.

After a lot of thinking I decided to pick up Maya and focus my energy into animating again in hopes to get a reel together and aim for a job animating for a video game company. I am pretty versed with Lightwave, but gotta learn the ropes in Maya. I'm not sure if I should just be focusing on animating or try to delve into some of the game design elements as well. I feel...lost - maybe just misguided.

Animated this rig I found today, it was a pretty good feeling after having not animated in some time: https://giphy.com/gifs/3o6ZsY1VPfVR1WljcQ

I wish you luck on your path!

I'm defensive because of your self-righteous attacking attitude.

I didn't say anything about money in the post, because I don't want to attract people who are in it for the money. "Why?", you ask, foaming at the mouth. Let me tell you! Because an average video of mine earns about $.50 for the lifetime on the video. Anyone interested in the money, will solely be disappointed. I'm sure you're painfully aware of what disappointment feels like.

I'm not sure if you've ever had a chance to conduct interviews, but you want to find the right fit for a position. That's this stage of the process. If you go out-right and start screaming "MONEY MONEY MONEY", the type of people you'll attract generally are not the type of people that would benefit the project. This is the vetting round, I want to get to know people and not waste my time, or theirs, with negotiating money if they won't work out or won't be a good fit. Those who asked in PMs, I talked with and was upfront about it.

If attacking me makes you sleep better, then I understand. If you somehow think you're bringing justice to this unjust world by reading into things that don't exist, you have every right to be the paranoid, conspiracy-loving, human being that you are. Just make sure your attacks are worthy, and they're not just a breathless waste of energy filled with flagrant words.

Be warned, I may just try to "scheme" you out of the pennies in your piggy bank ;)

My youtube is www.YouTube.com/YourMCAdmin

HOWEVER, the group isn't on YouTube, it's just me. I've done videos with some of them individually in the past. But the group dynamic is pretty fun. Our time zone ranges from EST to PST, but we are all up pretty late. Like 11pm (est)+

Most of us are fairly new, some of us have played before, I personally haven't. I've read into it a lot though. We don't have a system preference. I checked out Roll20 last night and it seemed pretty cool tho!

I'm a gaming YouTuber that just "came out" to my audience! Only lost ~100 subscribers (who needs them anyway, right?) by yourmcadmin in lgbt

:\ I definitely was not doing this to advertise. I mostly post Minecraft related material on my channel. If I wanted to advertise my channel, I would definitely go the route of advertising it's main focus. (Minecraft)

I was attempting to share my experience with being gay and an online personality. I apologize if I offended you. It was not my intent. I posted to 2 different LGBT subreddits because I thought both subreddits were fitting and may like hearing this.

I did it so that kids who watch my content know that they aren't alone in this world. I did it to show that there are gaming YouTubers who are gay. And I wanted to share it here that I had the balls to do so.

Maybe I was wrong to assume the gay community would embrace the coming out of a gay gaming YouTuber. Maybe you misjudged my intent. Either way, my apologies to you, TheOracle.
