    Did you ever flesh this concept out? Rocket power, about a band? Sounds amazing.

      I did! I talked about it more in my everything I made in 2023 video. It's slow going but I want to make a short, and I've done a lot of design work, have one of the rigs almost done and the story is mostly there and sections are boarded. I want to get stuck into it again soon and make more progress this year

    This is a great video. I really appreciate when industry professionals take the time to demystify what it's like to work in the industry. Currently working on some prop design to include in my portfolio so thanks a bunch for making this :).

    Really enjoyed this! Also had no clue that you have to rig while working as a prop designer. Thank you

    • @DrawBoySeanie
      @DrawBoySeanie  3 года назад +3

      Thank you, I'm glad to hear it! It depends on the production really, I've worked on a bigger budget Disney show and the rigging was all handled by someone else, but on smaller shows sometimes you have to wear a few hats at once.

    Things are drying up what I’m doing now - is animation going well?

    • @DrawBoySeanie
      @DrawBoySeanie  2 года назад +1

      It depends on where you are of course, but there's a fairly lively industry in Ireland anyway. When live action shut down at the start of the pandemic, animation was in a unique position to continue ticking along with everyone working from home. But I do have to say I don't think it's made it any more valued as a medium. In a lot of places, wages aren't great for the skill required, contracts are short so you're always hopping around and the kinds of working conditions you can expect is a gamble from project to project. I'm not trying to put you off but there are some realities that I'm sure people would want to know before going in!

      @@DrawBoySeanie Thanks man! Yeah, everything here on the east coast of the US is video game related. 3d and such. I’m looking for some traditional 2d work. Of course with Covid and everyone working from home maybe I could get a job with an Irish company. Haha Cheers
