if it wasnt for undertale, i probably wouldnt have my job? i applied to my current studio over a year ago with a storyboard test i had done for Disney TV the previous year. i didn’t progress with the disney job because of location reasons, but the director who contacted me for the test found me through the UT animatic I made. once i applied and supplied the test i did, our director was like LOL START RIGHT NOW. if it wasnt for undertale i wouldnt have made the UT themed animatic, and i wouldnt have done the test and i wouldnt have had anything Good And Decent to show when i applied since i was working as a janitor at the time and had zero motivation. now i work full time in the animation industry as a storyboard artist…. all thanks to Toby and fanart….. if someone tells you that you cant live a life doing fanart as an artist, vomit on their shoes and then walk away. its perfectly fine.
Same dude. I got my first job in an animation studio a few years ago, but it wasn’t even in animation. I lost the job because I couldn’t keep up dealing with it and finishing college ( with a graphic design graduation because it was the closest I thought I could get to digital art) so I lost so much of my motivation. A while after I went through some heavy family problems that only made it worse, but in this moment that I needed the most, Undertale came up and filled me with passion, drive to create, motivation to study again, show what I could do. So in another studio, with a bunch of fanart, I studied more then ever, applied myself, and now I work in a project in a studio I’ve been dreaming to work through most of this journey. It will always mean so much to me.
I got my two current animation jobs and my previous design job through Yu-Gi-Oh!, Sonic, and Ghost Rider fanart. Fanart is a BOON in this field – it gives you something to be passionate enough about to do good work. Nobody cares what it’s fanart of – if it’s good work, that will speak for itself.
The guy got his life and career destroyed by his divorce, cut him some slack.
he was also sexually assaulted by a man who could destroy his career
protect him
reblog if the man on the right is just as beautiful as the man on the left
people grow old? like, that’s a thing that happens? leave my guy alone.
This man deserves everything let him he happy
Ok… This is what happened to Fraser
-His wife ditched him and asked for 900k a year,
-He was sexually assaulted which he said kicked him into a deep depression
-He stated that the stunts from the 3rd Mummy movie completely destroyed his body and he was in and out of the hospital for 7 years even having to get surgery to repair his vocal cords.
-He apparently blamed himself for all this which only worsened his depression.
This man has literally been through hell this past decade so please lets cut him some slack and wish him the best
All this but also that picture on the right is a really bad paparazzi photo compared with a professional quality movie promo still. No one looks good when some random person snaps you on the street, regardless of who you are.
Compare with this image from the GQ article last February:
Proper lighting, professional setting, good angles etc.
The dude is 49 and has had a rough couple of decades, but he’s still lovely to look at, and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise.
Could we leave one of the very rarely found unproblematic white dudes alone?
His GQ piece is amazing and heartbreaking. He’s such a beautiful person.
Not only that but only utter garbage people body shame.
So if a teenager is at school for roughly 8 hours, and they are doing homework for 6+ hours, and they need AT LEAST 9 HOURS OF SLEEP FOR THEIR DEVELOPING BRAINS, then they may have 0-1 hours for other activities like eating, bathing, exercise, socializing (which is actually incredibly important for emotional, mental, and physical health, as well as the development of skills vital to their future career and having healthy romantic relationships among other things), religious activities, hobbies, extra curriculars, medical care of any kind, chores (also a skill/habit development thing and required by many parents), relaxation, and family time? Not to mention that your parents may or may not pressure you to get a job, or you might need to get one for economic reasons.
I will never not reblog this
“…but teenagers have no reason to be stressed.”
god bless this post
finally!
THANK YOU
When I was in high school, i had 9-10 hours at school, been home at 17, studying to 22/23 almost every day. Now I’m in university and comepletely burnt out because high school gave me a hard fucking time
Another reason most kids can’t handle certain interactions with others now.
I always thought it was so stupid how much time schools wanted students to focus on homework after school. Like “guys, I have a life outside of this building. My car needs repaired, I have medical appointments, family that I want to spend time with, not to mention a job to go to. So how about no?”
I had to go to the hospital for chest pains I was stressing so much at one point in college. Doctors couldn’t find anything wrong, physically, so you know what I was told? Anxiety.
Now, I still get those pains from time to time, even if I’m perfectly calm. But school has fucked me up physically and mentally. I now over focus on tasks to the point of forgetting to eat. Marching band in high school messed up my ankles, effectively causing me to have tendinitus. I have what seems to be a permanent condition where I sporadically have chest pain. I over worry about getting things done and think that, if I don’t, then I’m a failure.
if a teenager is at your door and they are wearing a costume!! please give them candy!! they are still in it for the halloween spirit and it honestly no different from a little kid in a costume. they are just as excited and happy as all the other lil tykes and dont you dare tell them they are “too old for trick-or-treating” because that will literally break their hearts and that’s not cool.
Its getting close to Halloween again so I just thought I’d reblog this again
And if “don’t be rude to teenagers over a stupid jawbreaker” isn’t enough for you, consider
You can’t tell how old a kid is just by looking. I’ve known multiple 5th graders who were taller than I am, and I’m 25 years old. With their faces hidden by masks, you won’t be able to tell they’re elementary schoolers, but they still are.
Lots of older siblings are expected to take their younger siblings trick-or-treating, and they only get paid in candy.
You don’t know if that teenager is developmentally disabled.
You don’t know if that teenager spent most of their childhood in a hospital or sick and has never had the traditional trick-or-treat experience before.
You don’t know if this is that teenager’s first Halloween in America, and they just want to experience a piece of American culture.
You don’t know if that teenager ever gets candy any other day of the year.
You don’t know if that teenager has eaten anything at all today.
And those are just things I can think of off the top of my head.
and even if it is just a bored 16/17 year old out trying to see what free shit they can get. is it really gonna kill you to give them a fun sized milky way from the multipack you bought at poundland? That thing didn’t even cost you 5p, just give the kid the sugar, say “nice costume”, and let it go.
There are worse things a teenager could be doing on Halloween instead of trick-or-treating.
It’s been kind if an unspoken rule in my college town that if college students show up at your door in costume you give them candy because they’re also out to have fun and it’s way nicer for the students to trick or treat instead of going out and getting drunk. It’s also a way for the people who don’t want to party and don’t want to drink to have fun so like, we need to stop getting angry at people older than 6 wanting to dress up and get candy.
Heck, we even offer the parents a bit of candy too! It’s all good fun~!
