Got a Film and Animation Daily Deviation suggestion?Note me with your suggestion and if you wish a little comment on what you think about the piece! I have a feature film/animation in development, and I want to be part of the Film In Progress articles! Where do I sign up?Just take a quick look at this [link] to give you a little idea and send me a note to let me know you're interested. I'll ask you some questions loosely based on the ones you see in that journal! I'm interested in submitting film/animation but I can't submit my work!Take a look at this faq! FAQ #831: Why can't just anyone submit film? Hey! Since you animate, think you could help me out with my work?Unfortunately I cannot work for free. I'm happy giving advice and words of wisdom based on my experiences, however I'm a freelance illustrator and animator, and I have to pay my bills.  |
