Day in the Life of a Japanese Game Illustrator
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 24 ноя 2022
- A day in the life of a Japanese Square Enix Game Illustrator. Square Enix is one of the top video game developers in Japan, creating ultra popular titles known-worldwide such as Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts and making it all happen, 3700 hard working employees. Today, we follow a Japanese Game Illustrator working in the Japanese game development company from morning until the evening. We show what a typical work day in Japan would be including her typical work hours as a Japanese game illustrator working for Square Enix. We also see her morning routine and after work hobbies. Also this is what it would be like working for a popular Japanese game company and the different staff you may come across during a typical work day. The Japanese game industry has so many different jobs so it was great to be able to show another job outside of game development and game programming. Rubi has been working as a video game illustrator in Japan for 6 years now. Even as a little girl she loved to draw but growing up couldn’t envision a proper career where she could pursue her passion. So she entered University majoring in a completely different field, but when her job hunting started, she discovered that there were prestigious Japanese companies were offering illustration jobs. Recognizing the opportunity, she convinced her parents to let her study Character Design at a Professional Training College, ultimately leading to her dream job at her current company, Square Enix and working with Art Directors like Toshiyuki Itahana.

Hello Paolo hope you've been good!
Pretty awesome editing and production, Paolo. This is real pro stuff.
@@Great_Sandwich Paolo*
@@simonediliberto4314 Oh, Jesus... did I write, "Pablo"!?
Fixed. Thanks.
Please do Day in a life of a Japanese Martial Artist.
I can't imagine the work that went onto getting approval, arranging, and filming this video. Thank you so much for sharing this experience! Thank you Rubi for sharing your day!
don't forget editing
I love this comment like how I love crackers
@@ddyuyang is it your favourite activity?
this video is a proof of Industrial Revolution and It's Consequences
All it takes is a few emails. If you've got 3M subs, reaching out and getting a response is a piece of cake
This man managed to get inside the Square Enix HQ. Paolo is a legend. Thank you for this.
and bandai namco too
he is indeed a legend, i think most Japanese will already know him from his social media, he's quite well known, so i think he will get easier access
Its basically free publicity for the company as well. Gives people who are looking for a job a look at how amazing it is there
@@guy-rk1jj yeah they did say theyre hiring
When u have over 3mil+ subs, ur gonna have some access to things normal people don’t.
THAT'S the woman who made so much artwork that we see on a regular basis. So impressive Paolo was able to do a video with her and Squaresoft!
damn, i hope these artists wont lose their jobs with a.i.
Haha Squaresoft. Memories…
@@batmanonholiday4477i don’t think so, imo AI can be helpful to artists
@@batmanonholiday4477 many jobs are afraid of AI 😅
@@Jjangbunbun Sora AI exist now..
Sometimes when I'm feeling unmotivated and don't want to do life, I imagine Paolo narrating my life and it helps me get things done. I even imagine the upbeat bg music and suddenly things like getting out of bed seem strangely easier. Thank you for these vids!
Don't tell the secrets
Get onto self improvement. Like spirituality and stuff.
Learn how to meditate & do yoga and you’ll be happier trust me.
Also workout if you don’t already. That doesn’t mean you have to weightlift theres diff types of exercising.
I heavily not to be sucked into watching too many series or doing drugs or playing video games as that only allows you to escape reality which makes you more depressed when you stop doing those things.
Id advise the RUclipsr hamza but he is for men but he is also extremely useful for girls too if you watch his videos like his mental health ones. Hope you find what you’re looking for you because you won’t truly become happier without doing some work. And its work because it’ll be worth it once you’ve reached it trust me :)
@@IceBeast5000 is this hamza a boy?
@@z7z766 yes haha.
same here! hahaha gets me going 😅
Wait, is that Toshiyuki Itahana (character designer in FF IX) you talked to? As a gamer, you visiting Square Enix and casually talk with designers of popular video games is a huge achievement. Love this series.
Is it?
Yeah that's him the father of zidane. He said he's working on a game which he cannot reveal I wonder what that is..... lol
I want FFIX remake 😄😄
Yep thats him!! Thats amazing!!!
@@wilsonxyz92 FF IX my favorite FF and game ever. First RPG ever I beat and game that got me into RPGs, it has been my favorite genre ever since.
As a game company project manager, it must be hard for you to get permission/approval to enter and film around. Definitely have some restriction, but for them to allowed you entering their production space, it's a huge step showing how much they trust your credibility/accountability as RUclipsr.
It's great seeing their HQ - at least few section of their building. Ubisoft, SQEX, Bandai, Sega, FromSoftware, all these massive name that gamers/designers would love to work at.
Nah, im a game company portfolio manager, which means i manage your bosses. Getting permission is easy if you know the right connections.
@@carnivorous_vegan u don't look like u work in Japan though
The fact you get to do this series with someone from Square Enix and show how it is there is already something! Can’t imagine how was the process to make all of this happen. Congrats on this achievement Paolo! Probably your best Day in the Life so far. :)
as a viewer, I'd like to thank everyone who agreed to filming this
it was very kind of you all and we really appreciate that
bro shut up....who tf asked for your thanks????
Paolo could've easily named this video a square enix JP tour but decided to keep it to it's origins, what a legend
I know right!
What?
That would make 0 sense on his channel.
The day in a life title gets more clicks due to the popularity of this series.
Was thinking the exact same thing
This is the craziest day in the life so far! Can’t believe you managed to get into square-enix! Incredible work Paolo!
This one doesn't feel like he "managed to get into", more like HR paid him to come. Great video though!
yeah it’s PR effort to re-introduce square enix which is plume meted recently (beand wise)
He got into Bandai Namco and Kodansha. Not that big
Yeo
I think the credit mostly goes to Maiko! I believe she takes care of all of the business negotiations. Not just any RUclipsr can achieve such a feat as getting Square Enix or JR onboard, which is why you don’t even see Japanese RUclipsrs making videos with them. Maiko must be a master negotiator. Thank you Maiko and Paolo!
"I'm in charge of Forspoken"
Oh... oh no
Ikr I felt bad for him. He had no idea what the next few months was going to bring.
@@BJGvideosyeah he was such a nice guy so I feel bad for him
LOVED this video! I'm super surprised how welcoming SquareEnix was with their tour. I got nervous seeing you walk around while you were checking what doors were open. 😅 I've watched a few studio tours that have been more in depth and even show more about game development, but this 1 makes it to the top. I think it was that real life feeling that allowed the audience (me) to enjoy a less formal and more natural experience. Thank YOU soo much for this opportunity Paolo!
i was shocked how small the artists desk was. if people treat artists this bad, ai will be much worse.
So much to appreciate here.
Her life story. Her talent. The insight into the Square Enix workspace. The insight into her way of living.
I was just here for the AmongUs, broseph.
likewise, loved this episode.
@@Bushmills21 well that explains why you were watching the entire video to find out she plays among us
I appreciate Google, it doesn' suck
Amogus!
You can tell she’s devoted to her work when she said her favorite was Zell from Final Fantasy 8.
A very underrated gem of a game that often gets overlooked.
FF8 is my favorite FF game; the story is just awesome and the relationship between Squall and Rinoa was everything!
@@theelaffingman8776 good game, but what story?
What about Yozora from Verum Rex?!
@@deeroberts8090 If that was supposed to be a dig, it feels like you missed the mark, my dude.
Very nice story plot indeed... wow everybody was in the same orphanage and they all forgot...
This was awesome! Thank you for setting this up and allowing us to watch!
Amazing! I love everyone involved in the process of making this video! Thank you, Paolo!
I love how she wrapped up the day with Among Us and a drink with her friends! So wholesome!
@@89.like you
Yo that's sad, work all day on computer / tablet then go home and play among us on a tablet, damn shame, youth wasted, when she going to date?! When she's old and wrinkly?
@@MrFfrenchh you are such a judgemental person. Don't pass your own insecurities onto other people just because you don't feel like you're living a fulfilling life
@@MrFfrenchh She's 30 and works a lot, so I suppose like most people who around the world work in an office, she dates colleagues or relies on her parents and friends so set her up
These kids are why the low birth rate, she got off at 6:30!! Did she work a long day?! You people are way too stupid.
I know this is really weird to say, but I'm really proud of her! She followed her dream and i can tell she is a hardworking artist that takes pride in her work. I hope she reaches the top.
This is not weird to say in no way
this is the top theres nothing higher
She's already at the top. She got her dream job already.
Why is it weird? It's cool!
I feel like being an illustrator at Square Enix is pretty much at the top already, she can be very proud of herself!
One of my favourite videos from your page Paolo!!! In addition, amazing work by you to get this content and arrangements with the company and Rubi too! Thank you!
I've been enjoying the Day in the Life series for a while. This is one of the absolute best videos. Rubi and the others introduced to us are so talented. It's fascinating to get a behind-the-scenes look at such a successful company.
damn, this day in the life format made it seem so casual like these were just any other people with any other job, but realizing that they have such important roles in creating a game/art to be shared with the world is kind of mind blowing...
Even the greatest works are all made by people, most of whom are relatively normal. The cult of celebrity and fame worship under a veil of secrecy is divorced from reality.
The moment she mentioned she works in the Chocobo GP team, I was like oh dang! You're actually going to the Square Enix offices. I'm a huge FF fan and just being able to see what its like inside their offices was pretty cool. They would've been so strict on what you can and can't show. They don't want things leaking prematurely before they announce it. Her artwork is amazing!
Really? The thumbnail didn't gave it away to you? Huge FF fan and you didn't recognized the moogle?
@@rovidelarosa I saw the title and clicked on it, I didn't really focus on what was on the background haha
@@rovidelarosa don't be that person
Yeah don’t that person I didn’t notice it either, but this would definitely be my dream job… I love ff14 been playing it for years 😑 maxed out before endwalker now I have to max out again to 90 lol
I figured it was Square Enix from the thumbnail itself.
These series of a day in the life is really enjoyable to watch. I like the format of the videos. Keep it up!
Thank you for this wonderful video, Paolo. Rubi-san's story is so inspiring too, not letting disappointment take over and in the end pursuing her dream. I wish her all kinds of success in life!
When I saw the title I thought you are just covering a game designer who works from a "not well known" game company but when you said Square enix. Holy! You put another layer of respect on top of already a tower of respect you earned from me. Thank you for infiltrating their office for me. as a huge FF fan my whole life this means the world to me.
Same, I guess I should have looked closer at the Thumbnail since the corporate logo is literally on it.
Rubi comes off as such a confident woman! From the way she carries herself, to how she interacts with others while working. Respectful, but dignified. Loved watching her!
The most important values about her are her modesty and positivity
This is SE, they're all top pros
This is Japan all are well behaved and kind
Not curry
@@rs9130 For how well behaved you preach people are, you sure are racist. Besides, fun fact, Japanese eat curry too.
Desi curry
I've watched many of your videos, but somehow this one slipped under the radar. I am a massive fan of Square Enix, and wanted to just say that you did an incredible job covering this. Well done to both of you!
Please do more videos like this. Its so cool to see people working on the game/anime industrie.
My man Paolo casually talks to legendary game creatives. Previously, he was casually talking to Mr. Kouhei ikeda, Mr.Katsuhiro Harada's associate director on Tekken 7. And now it's Toshiyuki Itahana. What a champ.
✊
right lol
Forspoken is getting the piss taken out of it!!
I've checked the Video on the Bandai Programmer, it was Kouhei Ikeda the one who he was speaking with
@@MetalFreezer3000 Ah you're right, I vaguely remember it as I thought it was Harada san but It was really Ikeda san. my bad. I gotta change it somehow.
Their industry is no joke, full of amazing had working artists! ✨ and her work is so cool!
Do you think she is shaved?
@@Mogamishu clean your white cat

Do not delete this comment, please?
It would be a good reminder of your immaturity. A few years from now, you can look back at your infatile and insipid self.
but square enix games has bad reviews recently, starts from marvel's avengers.
like valkyrie elysium, star ocean, various daylife, diofield chronicle, outriders, balan wonderworld, marvel's avengers, babylon's fall, etc.
As someone who makes games themselves, it’s really nice to see how they make the games I hope you can make more game based day in a life videos :)
BBC has archival footage of Miyamoto and another fella editing the level map for a Doom Ship for "Super Mario Bros. 3."
Amazing. I sometimes binge watch these series and its fascinating to see the many different jobs/careers in japan. One thing stands out to me: all these people are disciplined and focused. Thank you paolo for these great day in the life series. Mahalo.
My 1 year old watches Paolo's videos with so much interest because of Paolo's big smile. My boy smiles back at Paolo. His morning has just been made.
Paolo looks a lot mu uncle. Albeit mine is A lot older
I'm a FF XIV (MMO) player and I was very happy to see one of the team members (even if it was just for a sentence or two), who helped shape the experience I had while playing the story of the game and I'm sure he will help to shape many new experiences in the future. All the employees, whom we saw, seemed genuinely happy to work for SE and I hope that that applies for all of the 3700 employees throughout all departments. Everyone helps in their own way to create the many stories, which SE tell us through their games! Wish them all all the best and thanks for the cool video, Paolo! :)
These videos are so AMAZING, thanks for shareing!
Since having my PlayStation console back in 2000, I have always loved Square Enix's illustrations! As of this day I am playing Chocobo's dungeon and Kingdom Hearts, and while watching this video I am all smiles! I can't explain the feeling of being able to get a glimpse of the behind the scenes of my favorite games! Thank you Paolo for this amazing content, for Rubi for sharing your day, Square Enix and everyone for allowing this to happen!
I've watched all of your day in the life episodes but this one got to me for some reason made me go "wow". Thank you for showing us things we can do in this world, amazing job :)
Thank you!!! Glad you enjoy the videos.
Just putting it out there, can we just appreciate all the amazing art ❤
I can’t believe you managed to get into Square Enix. I grew up with Final Fantasy 7 and 8 so I felt a special connection with this episode ❤
As usual. Great content Pao! I love Square Enix! I am once again impressed at the work you had to go through to get access to such a famous gaming company!
man this was so good and you just casually talking with these designers that has or will impact a lot of people growing up/grown up that will forever remember there work , huge accomplishment , also the approval , filming/editing that had to happen for this one
As a video game voice actor, I was already excited when I saw Square Enix, but then to see the actual recording studio was so cool!! Maybe one day, it could be me in there! Rubi is incredible at what she does, thank you so much to Rubi and to you for another fantastic video. 😊
AND A MOCAP STUDIO! I love it so much!!
How long did it take to get in the industry and any cool games you worked on ?
KEEP Grinding mah dude! I hope you make it!
@@southcoastinventors6583 been at it for three years now, and sorry friend, but nothing I can tell you about!
@@faintsherin4468 hey thank you! This is the energy I'm taking into the next year with me! Hope life gives you nothing but the best!
Loved this vid!!!! Thanks for sharing a window into this world
I envy her so much and her talent and her life. I hope I could feel as accomplished one day surrounded by other passionate people working towards a fun goal.
@@gabeiana I used to feel this too, but instead when you pratice gratefulness you can look at things like this like its inspiring instead!
Same
Her lifestyle really inspires me! I'm so glad Paolo makes these types of videos. They really motivate me haha
Paolo, this video is insane! As someone who works within the industry and knowing the amount of hoops you’d have had to jump through too get this together is absolutely incredible, especially with Square Enix! Seeing their offices is absolutely incredible, fantastic work Paolo! You’ve really stepped up the videos recently! Keep up the amazing work!
This is so cool! Makes me happy to see behind the scenes of the HQ where so many favorite memories come from!
Wooooooow! So amazing you got to talk with such legends in the game development industry, and of my favorite game series studio too! Thank you very much for sharing this experience with everyone here. This was awesome and I'd love to get a chance to work with any of them some day.
I have binged your entire "Day in the Life of..." series and GAH Paolo, you and everyone involved are so freaking cool for doing this! Thank you for introducing all of us (your audience) to such amazing jobs and people through your art! I'll have to let my Japanese tutor know about this in our next lesson!
As a gamer, I LOVED this episode and can't even imagine all the hoops you had to jump through but I just want to say 'Thank you' for jumping through them for us!
you know you've watched too many SE live broadcasts and interviews when you start recognizing various parts of the building.......
this is so amazing though, thank you Paolo! As a life long fan of SE games, I loved every minute of this tour!
your videos are so amazing that showing the lives of people in different industries, which other hard to find a chance to take a look. In the world, at different places there are many people working and making an effort to make the world a better place!
As a FFXIV player/addict this is a dream video. I can't believe you got full access to the studio. It looks like a very progressive place to work with very talented staff.
Hell yeah I love these day in a life. Hopefully Meiko is doing a lot better.
Thank you so much for such an inspiring video! Love your channel!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing and giving us an idea what a professional game illustrator does 👍🏼🤗. Beautiful artwork 👍🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽!
This is my favorite episode so far BY FAR. I absolutely love the Final Fantasy series and most Square Enix games. Not only is Rubi extremely talented (I just checked some of her work), her work day seemed rather normal and she was able to leave after work while there is still sunlight.
The offices are incredible and I enjoyed seeing all of the props and illustrations spread around the office. Which reminds me of the SE offices in London. Sounds like a dream job.
It's so cool you made it into HQ! Seems like they run a tight ship. So impressive how much expertise needs to come together to make games these days. I can't even imagine a mocap session w 10 people across different disciplines collaborating without strangling each other
After the debacle with XIII, Crystal Tools, and XIV 1.0, I sure hope they run a tight ship.
This is one of the best ones I LOVE IT THANKS PAOLO!
We need more of these! Love this.
I'm sure the hoops to get into Square Enix were massive, on fire, and moving at random patterns. Congrats and thank you for all the hard work to bring us such an exclusive day in the life of!
Paolo, I don't know if you can grasp how much this episode means for so many people. SE has been part of the lives of many of us gamers, and being able to not only see inside their HQ, but also a few of the faces working behind the art of those video games is so beautiful. Rubi is amazing! Every time I see any SE art (specially chocobos) I'll be thinking of her!
Agree 100 percent. The visual art and sounds are things I escaped to as a child. Being able to create for a company like that AND be compensated for it..wow. That truly is a dream.
This is actually really interesting! I was looking for a video like this!
Very cool video! It's awesome to see the inner workings of Square Enix! The motion capture area looks cool and it's always fun to see the thought process behind these artists.
I've always love Paolo's "Day in the life of" series but this is just the bee's knees! A Day in the Life of a Square-Enix employee! The work it must of taken to secure this must have been immense. This is amazing. I've always wanted to be in the game industry. Life took me in a different - and still quite fulfilling direction - but nevertheless it's nice to live vicariously through these videos. Thank you so much!!!
Man, I love this episode. As an artist myself, it's always so much fun to see other artists making beautiful works!
「好き」を仕事にできるって素敵だなぁ…
この方はフリーターではないイラストレーターなんだな。こういう働き方もあるんだなって学ぶことが出来ました！
This one was super cool! Especially when the SquareEnix sign appeared! Good work!
Soo excited for this one! Thank you for the content Paolo and Maiko 🙏🏼
LG!! 🔥
The fact that when remote work is available, mostly concept art guys take it is a fact at any studio makes me smile a little bit haha I love drawing at home.
Beware of scam! ^
I am obsessed with this channel. I have been binge watching and can't get enough.
Love your videos Paolo, they motivate me to keep pursuing my dreams and to find light in life. Thanks!!
I'm such a big fan of the FF series so seeing an illustrator working for Square Enix plus inside the Square Enix building...I seriously fangirled. Can't imagine what hoops you had to jump over to get a green light for this. :D Thank you so much for posting this episode.
I graduated university with a degree in computer animation but never pursued it as a career due to health issues so seeing this really made me feel proud of her! Thank you Paolo for this wonderful video 💖
Please do your best and good luck finding it. The same goes for me, as I had an illustration degree too.
So what do you do as a career alternatively?

First you did one of these at Bandai Namco Games the masters of Arcade Games and now you did one at Square Enix the Kings of Role Playing Games?!?! I'm very impressed.
Now he needs to go to Nintendo.
He kind of went to Nintendo's original HQ which is now a hotel 😅
Bandai Namco also makes great RPGs.
@@Goleon Yes please.
Funny enough on his last video about Masa in Bandai Namco I commented how he should go to Square Enix and Nintendo to and Square Enix happened now, so maybe Nintendo will happen soon to.
@@experience_point6233 - OMG.
Totally envious of Rubi for her talent and getting to work for such an amazing company.
Same here my dream growing up was working for Capcom. I'm in my 40's
Hard work makes talent, and even the talented work to keep it so.
@@TheGrreatDane My younger brother is hearing impaired, but loves music: he feels it. Taught himself bass, then guitar, then drums, and though he was 100%, his friends with instruments not so much. He has wife and family, but still made time for what he loved: hard rock and metal. He played local gigs, had interest, but not enough local support. Again though, life issues with band members led to his hanging his guitars on the wall, and those who could not give local support now want to talk of the 'good old days' now that we're in our 50's. I have nothing but contempt for them: if you can't do something, then state it plainly, instead of ambiguous maybes.
@@persnikitty3570 I feel you. One key aspects the video states is that her parents were supportive of her career choice to become an Illustrator. I didn't have the same support growing up despite showing true potential. (Won few amateurs drawing contest). But I will enlist to a concept/illustration program just to make peace with it.
Paolo, this is amazing, as are all of your videos! What an experience, and thank you to all involved for sharing!
Awesome video good job getting in there. I love Square Enix. More gaming videos!!!!
This was a great day in life, Paolo! Keep up the great work!
I love how the most replayed part is people trying to see what kind of little animals she has in the cage at the start.
Also I saw that Moogle and was immediately impressed Paolo! You managed to get us a look inside a prestigious studio!
it's called Chinchilla, they love belly rub
feet, it's feet...
This video is amazing! Working at SE was my dream as teen. lol. Very happy to see such passionate employees working hard on all the different game titles. If Rubi or Paolo sees this, thank you again for the insight!
She's living a dream. Thank you Rubi for your dedication to make our life more worthy👍
Holy smokes, inside Square Enix! This is so awesome. The place looks as wonderful as I imagined it would :) Thanks for the video, Paolo!
She's so talented, lots of final fantasy games helped me through my life and seeing her create the designs and graphics for covers etc is so amazing, good work Paolo!
This was the coolest ep you've done!
Man Paolo is a legend! I don't know how you did it but you must have gone through so much to do these series. You had namco which is a big one for the programmer and now you got Square as well! I really love this series and thank you for so much for making these videos!
I really love their passion at lunch when he ask for favourite you can see how she was glowing and shining talking about Zell! I always like seeing their passion and you can see that when he asked the question she just had so much to say which was really good:)
I think on that basis I can totally see why the guy who looked after the motion capture area say it's very difficult when you got so many people coming together. They all got their own ideas and like the other worker during lunch said her vision can sometimes end up being implemented differently must be difficult and would need the person in charge to then step in and have the final say on what to do otherwise sometimes perhaps it will never end with the discussion or how things should be done.
Thank you again, Paolo for delivering excellent content. Though we don’t know what went on behind the scenes to secure, film, and edit this video it’s greatly appreciated. We see you out here perfecting your craft. 🎉
As someone currently studying 3D Animation & Games at uni, this is super inspiring. Rubi is super cool and she’s living the dream ❤
I agree. Too bad I am unable to live that dream and working at a job that I am not passionate about beside getting bills paid lmao
Until she wakes up one day and realizes she is 35+, not married and no kids, and realize she is actually pretty unhappy with life. It’s the same story in every country 😏
@@eufrosniad994 You don't have to have kids or being married to enjoy your life and what's wrong with being 35+?
@@eufrosniad994 you dont have to project yourself onto strong women on youtube its okay :)
@@sakuyakizume First, what I said is indeed the case for women in general. In other words, what I said is how majority of the women feel when they come to that point. There can most certainly be odd balls, but the reality is that usually, what I said holds true. That being said, how people present themselves in public, and how they present themselves to their psychiatrist is usually way different. Look at how many celebrities end up committing suicide and such that no one saw coming, and they had everything they could want.
You say that doing what you love is what brings happiness. Truth is, it actually doesn’t. Why? Because what people identify as the thing that will make them happy if they can do it is usually always changing. What usually happens with people who continue to enjoy doing what they thought would make them happy once upon a time, is a case of mental fortitude. They will actively dismiss the things they face in their chosen path and just keep working at it. Usually, it will also be a higher hurdle to change jobs anyway. Take your teacher. She cannot just change her teacher path to becoming an engineer, a consultant, a medical doctor, or even get married very suddenly.
Now, why is it that women usually feel unhappy without children and family? It’s biology. Something you realize as you grow older is that the biggest cause for sadness is knowing you had the potential, but missing out on it because you didn’t realize the importance at the time. In this sense, every woman had the potential to bring new persons into the world, while also having someone to take care of them when they are old. Instead, she realizes that she slaved away for a company that will not care one bit about her as a person. All they see in her is whether she is a productive worker. Once she retires, she will likely end up in a nursing home and die without anyone by her bedside. THAT is something women realize when they are around the 35 mark. And no, it’s not projection.
This is so cool😍😍it's amazing to see how the creative people work , so good ✨✨
I'm a teacher and I loved showing this video to my elementary/middle school kids who love to draw (we muted the swear). I would love to see a Day in the Life of Paolo to show my prospective filmmakers the work it takes to make the video. They thought you really did just walk in and start talking to people and I explained you probably worked to get approval from the company, then found people to interview, and prepared questions in advance, not to mention the actual filmmaking and editing. We would love to see it!!
U are an awesome teacher!
@@yolopolo877 You just made my day - thank you!
The people Paolo meets and doesn't realize their impact is insane! What a lucky guy!
He probably recognizes it and that’s why he makes the videos 😅
All the people you met are SUPERSTARS for some of us! Congrats! I loved every second of the video.
I'd love to see a day in the life of an actor, model, voice actor or something like that in the future!
Big respect to these artists for bringing out our favorite characters to life!
It's so truly interesting to watch. Thanks so much for this! It was informative for me, and I did enjoy watching the video. 💙💛
I am not the only one who is amazed at the hoops you had to go through for this filming ! Also its amazing that these guys are responsible for series of games that are globally known and you got to just hang out with them for the day. Another fantastic "Day in the life" video. Loving these !
i totally lost it when Amongus came on and Paolo said "oh so you can't talk during this section??" that was gold.
This is such an amazing episode! I'm so glad SE agreed to help make this work!! Free advertising for them, basically, but still! Super cool to see the work environment there. I loved the sound and mocap snippets too!! Interesting to hear that there are many disagreements with so many people in the mocap studio working at once - I'm curious what that looks like in a Japanese team 😅
Pretty much the case to most of them I think. Like for Creative Business Unit III (the makers of Final Fantasy XIV and XVI), their leader, Producer/Director Naoki Yoshida said that their entire team can be compared to a pack of jackals in which he means they argue a lot because everyone is really passionate at what they do so sometimes their opinions about certain aspects of the game clash. But at the end of the day, their camaraderie wins because its a team who worked for a game for almost a decade now so they got really used to it.
I think they are the only developers at Square Enix who are really exposed to the media and the players in a consistent basis since they hold regular livestreams and do fan festivals in different countries every year except during the pandemic period, an advantage they obviously get from working for an ultra popular MMO.
This was really great to watch!
