AM Peer Buddies
I graduated from AnimationMentor 9 months ago now! I can’t believe that much time has gone by already.
It’s been a busy 9 months though. Our wedding in April in Belize (see the blog), then our reception back home after, a trip to San Diego to Siggraph in August, and then a long weekend in Ashland in September. And of course animation practice in between! Oh yeah - and still working at my non-animation job (12 years and 4 months now at this job!).
I’m still working on putting together my demo reel. I’ve done a couple of dialogue clips and a couple of body mechanics tests since graduation. I learned a lot from all of them but only one is reel-worthy so I’ve still got more work to do.
I volunteered to be a peer buddy at AM this term. It’s great because I have access to the student site again and the lectures for class 4 and the student’s assignments and mentor critiques and forums and in return I have to be available on AM chat and leave at least 7 student critiques and participate in the forums. It’s very cool! I had forgotten how much I missed the student site. The energy is really motivating there and has gotten me back on track to finishing my demo reel.
My husband misses me again though.
