Updates

So this ends my first week as a motion graphics/content producer at Rogers. Pretty much I'm doing advanced powerpoint hot to presentaitons in After Effects. I will have more overseer responsibility soon enough.
The people here are great. There is a huge ratio of women to men so that's wonderful. I prefer to work with women. If you read my blog, I explain it better.
I find there's no competition and I'm able to relate. My more sensitive side I guess. Working with guys always ends up in some level a competition, and when I win their noses get out of joint, yadda yadda. Not worth the headache.
I'm working on other freelance stuff as well. The client rep I deal with is wonderful, but her company isn't so much so.
Dealing with back and forth over technical issues is a pain in the ass and clogs up my computer for no reason. I could be surfing the net or making money doing other things.
They will be invoiced. I am not their testing ground for poorly coded playback software.

The End on that matter.
I'm also working on a great little 30 min short with a Director friend of mine, Geoff Reyes. It's about Randy Quaid.
Alas I can say no more.
Let's just say I will have this little gem on my reel real fast.

Also I'm still pitching some programming. Franglais, William Furrey, Knuckleball and others. Very exciting stuff.
Time to close up and call it a day.
Cheers
