Problems in the industry and how you can deal with it.

Before my class of the Overview of the Industry, i received an email about how all artistic industries share a problem as well as how their employees have problems themselves. I understood a lot from the information, like how some in most industries they create appropriate working environment to help the workers with their work and what problems they faced. In class we discussed about what problems the industries faced  according to our own knowledge. Although, most of them were similar in some ways. Some of the thoughts included how the artists become unemployed after they finish their project and publish it, another being the fact that most people want to work on one particular area in the industry. The report i read was somewhat new to me, because i did not know some of the things that was mentioned in there. For example the Informality section, i did not know that the industry had a very creative work space for their artists. The Long Hours section was intuitive for me however, because i know that animation takes a long time to make. Although some animators write the story board, draw sketches of animation and then make a final animation, i do things differently. I just draw a comic strip of the scene and then try and animate it. I do this differently because i feel more comfortable looking a pictures that just reading. In class i told about how having more skills in your choice of industry will help you gain more recognition and allow you you to teach others to fasten the workflow of the project. This is supporting the Short Term work that was talked in the webpage. By having variety of skills, you can get more job opportunities. Although, this will mean less time for yourself and your social time. This also has to be seen from the customers point of view. If you have variety of skills, the customers will surely want to hire you, but later on you might not get the project ready on time and the customer looses interest. So with all these points i can determine what to do properly in the future. I would gain more skills and learn how to manage my time. Also i could help out others if they came across an obstacle.
