Livestream Series Request

  

I recently watched the old livestream about freelancing and it left me wanting to know more! Since you guys always promote wanting to give us a curriculum that gets us ready to work in the industry, I prepose a livestream series that fits / supplements this vision: 

  

I would love to see a series about working in CG / Game Dev, with different topics and livestreams throughout the year(s).

  

The freelancing stream covered the modeling side with @jlampel & @theluthier , and the animation side with @waylow , but I also want to learn about working in game dev @jgonzalez . 

  

Suggestions for topics to cover:

  

• Freelancing 

• How to successfully create & sell assets/addons/etc. at the Blender Market & Unity Asset Store 

• Working in a studio 

• Teaching CG 

• How to juggle between a day job and freelancing on the side 

• How to start a business

• Tips for building you portfolio and making demo reels 

• Live critique for portfolio work and demo reels 

• Finding a job 

• Interviews with people from all the industries -> modelers, animators, game artists, concept artist, business owners, freelancers, developers, etc. -> working in animation studios, vfx, game studios, advertisement/commercial company’s, etc. (for example I loved the interview with Tanner Kalstrom about GameTextures.com!)

  

  

There are probably a lot more topics to cover! Hope you guys like this idea 😊
