Job as Rigger/Pipeline TD

After a few frenetic weeks rushing to meet the deadline imposed by the CG Student Awards 2015 (13 May) finally i had something to show. And I say finally because for the last months i've applied for jobs where i was aware i needed at least a demo reel, so instead i used to tell my life in neverending emails hoping to get caught by some samaritan producer.

Well this last week was in the end very productive. I had no more than 3 job opportunities:

- The first one was an internship of a month and a half in Lightbox Entertainment thanks to a master colleague that already works there. You never know how important networking is.

- The second one was an internship at a company in Barcelona but the work could presumably be done from here from Madrid. They told me they really liked my work and that they would put me as rigger in spite of the fact that they were looking for a 3d modeler. They revealed to be very kind: i sure would have loved working for them. The company name is PaperFrog and they are currently making a TV3 show regarding animals and dinosaurs.

- The third one, the one i chose, is at a company in the center of Madrid. They are starting the production of a new feature film but they don't have made many claims regarding this yet. The film is intended to deliver next year and i have a contract for almost the rest of the year. I cannot talk really much about it because of the confidential terms but in the press note they released in April they say Spa Studios has done the character development and that the script has been written by the guy that worked in Madagascar 2 and others. It looks really promising.

I leave you here with the show reel i presented to the CG Student Awards. I very doubt that i win anything but the purpose for me was to do some work and have something to show when applying for a job.
