The post-collegiate panic commonly experienced in animation is definitely something I can relate to. Your "there is light at the end of the tunnel" interpretation of the topic is definitely a stress-reliever that I would recommend newly graduated animators never lose sight of.piratefishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00778132512825035327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738814364413384768.post-62404505417306313852011-03-23T13:58:07.113-07:002011-03-23T13:58:07.113-07:00Thanks for the comments, all.
