Girl help I really need to do the test tasks for a new job or else my life is gonna get very bad real soon, but all I want to do is draw ttrpg characters.
#majek says shit
#ok so Im jobless since august but I had a safe amount saved to live a little too comfortably until about now
#and now I have money left to live relatively normally until January and after that uhhhhh bad 0 money left
#I got caught in a trap of “animators are always wanted in gamedev you'll find a job in 2 weeks” thing everyone seems to genuinely believe
#turns out every studio on earth is looking for Seniors and Leads or 3D animators that turn out to be 3D generalists able to do everything
#from concept to every kind of model optimised for games and texturing and rigging and mocap and keyframe stuff and vfx is also nice
#and I'm like “hello am animator know how to make character move. i can give them skeleton but not necessarily if in 2D”
#“have a few years of experience in gamedev but got fired just before the premiere of my one title that will list me as animator”
#got fired along with many others because the publisher backed out and there was no money to keep most of the artists this close to launch
#so far only two studios followed through with the recruitment. one makes casino games and asked me 3 questions through mail
#they wanted to know why im looking for a job. have I heard about them before and how much I wanna earn. also added that my personality
#should shine through my answers. sure xd. the other is a mocap studio and they want me to do a test. in software I last used 5 years ago
#and its mocap which I dont like and know almost nothing about how to do it
#and I WANNA DRAW. I made a disaster of a cleric to replace Cayden in the old party and Im itching to draw him properly
#also there is secret satan and a whole queue of scenes from recent sessions
#including the lase one when Cayden was possessed by an ancient wizard (?) for a few seconds and now has mild ptsd
#there were such cool visuals there because he was connected to a tentacle that pierced the back of his neck and his eyes went black
#and I had to fight the party from that moment. hit them once with a big fire damage spell and then passed a save. and then failed again
#fortunately the party destroyed the artifact that did the posessing and it ended. but my boy simultaneously experienced some cosmic horror
#beyond his comprehension. and kinda saw his own hands casting fire at his friends. all while he was fighting in his head with some tentacles
#and being watched by first disembodied black eyes and then by a shadowy figure
#now he has weird nightmares of more cosmic horror and gets uneasy if he looks at the night sky for too long ;o;
#I also have a drawing of the party celebrating their promotion to captains and like 3-4 sketches and one other big scene
#in which Cayden has a romantic tension moment with another character while casting prot from evil on them to save them from mind control
#also I have a commission to finish that a friend paid for LAST NOVEMBER
#but that mocap studio is waiting for this test for so long now I have to do it if its the last thing I do in my life
