Sometimes to stick out in the competitive landscape, you have to pitch concepts that no one else is doing. Make stuff that really stands out compared to the norm. Among 5 other (arguably better or more daring concepts) the client, Junk King, chose to pursue this one we call “Annoying Junk”. The idea is that everyone has some junk around their house or their workplace that is just a little bothersome. We wanted to play up that idea with the office supplies taking it up to the next level and being flat-out annoying by making loud and childish noises, coughing, and telling lame dad jokes. To execute this idea, we used a combination of real voices for the audio to pair up with the 3D eyes and 2D animated mouth to create a unique, fun look that would bring each object to life. Taking inspiration from the mundane, dreary atmosphere of the movie Office Space, we chose to light and color our footage to evoke that same dismal vibe. In the end, we ended up with something that stood out in comparison to the cookie-cutter videos in the industry and delivered the value proposition in a fun and simple way.

In the spirit of Amir Satvat to all friends looking for a job - please don't make the mistake many people still do. Don't apply for more than one position in any one studio. Unless there are very specific (and unlikely) circumstances that you can do two different jobs at exactly the same level and experience, then please just apply for the job you want. Applying for more than one job says to me and many other hirers that you either don't know what you want and/or you don't know how the industry works. If you are at a senior level, then apply to a senior position. If you are at a medium level, apply for the medium position. Of course if there is only a senior position open I think it's ok to apply for that role. You may not be hired as a senior but they might just hire you as a medium and close that job opening. If you are an environment artist apply for the environment artist position - not environment art and character artist. It will almost certainly frustrate the hiring managers. This isn't just for art - this is for designers too and I imagine it's the same for all disciplines. So please apply for the one position that you want the most, not everything. This is especially important for people with no experience who want their first job. Do your research and find out what position you want to work in before applying and then apply to the one you want. As always if you need any help figuring out your next steps please get in touch and I will try to help with a 25 minute portfolio review or just a general chat. Good luck! #jobhunt #gamedev

Pakistani's Who are hiring peoples for the jobs, they should stop demanding an extra services. if you need a graphic designer then you shouldn't put the extra services there like " We need a Graphic designer & video editor or 2d animator " I mean Graphic design is a different field and 2d animating is different too. We are peoples not machines so stop burden peoples. #stopthepressure #graphicdesign #graphicdesigners #videoeditor

We’ll get into setting up scenes, lighting them and the technical aspects of filming another time, but today we want to talk about colour correction and grading. We shoot primarily on @sony Cinema cameras, and we always film in what’s called LOG. Without getting too technical LOG footage is very flat looking, almost black and white which gives us more scope to get creative when editing. It allows us to manipulate the colours of a scene, based on the look we want to achieve. The videos in this post show a couple of examples of the before and after during the colour grading process, from some recent online recruitment content we produced. #digitalmarketing #marketingagency #behindthescenes #essexvideographer

🎨 Color correction is the process of fixing or “correcting” colours in your videos so they look natural and unprocessed. 🎥 Even a professional camera is not able to capture colors as accurately as the human eye does. This is why color correction is an essential process during the video editing. #colorcorrection #colorgrading #videoediting #postproduction #videographer #videoediting #clipics

Creative Labor jobs are crapshoots. Maybe you’re one of the lucky few who carve out the “perfect” situation for yourself but that isn’t the majority. What is a “creative labor” job? Think Photographer, Graphic Designer, Cinematographer, Sound Engineer, Session Musician. The list goes on. REAL STORY: I have a friend who is the cinematographer on a VERY high budget show on a VERY huge streaming platform. He gets paid a lot of money per week to go film a show you all know. He travels the world, with his family, all expenses paid, for a year at a time. Works with huge directors, actors, you name it. I’ve been in the film world a long time and he is the ONLY person out of hundreds I’ve met, that has this hooked up situation. Everyone else is more or less struggling in some aspect regularly. Creative Labor jobs are slowly fading into the ether. Bet on yourself. Build your own leverage. Take your skills and capitalize on them in a different way. Or get left behind.
