I'm replacing some old video game manuals with PDFs to make more room on the bookshelf. I'm pretty sure the library won't be able to use them, so I'll try sidewalk recycling them next weekend. Most of them are for various MYST games that I still have on the PC. I loved the art they did for that series so much! If no one in my neighborhood is ( Read more... )

Not feeling too good today, but I'm going to try and get some stuff done anyway. I'm currently pulling together some stuff for review by an internal HR person who emailed me yesterday. I don't expect a response until late next week. Still no word from the other internal recruiter who called earlier this week, but maybe he'll get back to me next ( Read more... )

I got another hit via email from one of my recruiters, but she hasn't called, so I'll be following up with her today to find out details. I've done a couple of applications and I'll try to do a few more. I wasn't expecting to hear much this week, given the upcoming holiday. I did get my art director freelance money early and I'm sending out an ( Read more... )

I split today between going through artist portfolios and making intentionally slow progress on the new Bargue drawing. I may head back to the library tomorrow afternoon, but I'll see how many comps I can send out for approval tonight ( Read more... )

I spent the morning doing some photoshop work and reviewing the job ads/sending out more resumes. I only managed to study for about 3 hours at the library today, but that's better than nothing. I'm not clear on the syntax in the final examples I reviewed, so I'll pick up there again tomorrow with the jQuery api page on google. :P ( Read more... )

Thursday was a weird confluence of Photoshop requests, so I didn't make it to the library. I did manage to fill out a few job applications. Same for today, only the part that wasn't job search was me taking a couple of hours off to go see The World's end. I think I only have a couple of movie passes left, so I will probably try to see Pacific Rim ( Read more... )

I answered a query from one of my existing recruiters, so I'm waiting to hear back from her about some freelance work that's come up. I have a couple of ebooks that may come in handy for the interview, so I'll load up the ipad before I leave today ( Read more... )

I donated more books at the library yesterday. I have three more bags waiting, so I'll be dropping off another one today.

I split yesterday's time at the library between studying my jQuery book and working on another Glen Keane drawing. I plan to do the same again today ( Read more... )

I went to the library, as planned, and did a bit of research as well as a barebones outline for the new Bargue drawing. I'm going to treat it like the class assignments, so it will take much longer to complete. I'll switch between that and the Disney production art drawings, which are meant to go much faster, but just take me longer because of ( Read more... )

I had a productive day at the library yesterday. I have the outline and some notes for a potential presentation if I get the interview. Maybe I could try making/design a more formal chart or infographic? I think I have a pretty clear idea of the direction the company is looking to go in, based on their recent acquisition of another company, so ( Read more... )
