Freedom! Horrible Horrible Freedom!

I am officially done on Frog. I handed in my last scene, have been removed from the mailing list, attributed my timecard to a different cost centre, and shaken hands with the associate producer. By Monday, the very last remaining scene in the film should be animated.

GUESS WHAT YOU GUYS, WE MADE A MOVIE!

HUZZAH! Now we just have to wait for it to be released!!
ps is it easier to draw on a slanted table? (random i know so is the next one) and is it harder to get a storyboarding job that to get an animator job?

1. Yes – it's comfortable to draw on for long stretches of time as you aren't hunched over a flat surface, and the paper is more flat-on to your eyes so you don't have the foreshortening effect of a tabletop which might distort your drawings.
2. Sometimes? In features, there are far more animators than storyboarders so demand is higher and competition potentially less, but storyboarders have more opportunities for work in TV (which gets animated overseas) and live-action (which doesn't get animated at all).
