Despite my best efforts to thwart my own attempts at employment, I managed to procure for myself a summer job. I'm doing opening titles and additional graphics and animation for a documentary on slam poetry.
"But David," you say, "you're not an animator!"
Well, I am now. I went down to Austin the other day to discuss the project with the producers and directors; despite my inexperience, they really liked the handcrafted look of the demos I put together for them, and had the contract all drawn up and ready. The project due date is in August, but the lion's share of the work needs to be done within the next four weeks. And it's a lot of work. I'm looking forward to many long nights of tearing my hair out once Final Cut Pro and After Effects and Photoshop and my brain start crashing due to the wear and tear they're all about to be put through.
