Actionable Steps
- Have no expectations for life, just do the work, if something bad happens, you wont get too down about it and if something great happens you’ll be happier.
- VR is just starting out, probably is gonna take 10 to 20 years to be in the next level but if you start now you’ll have 10-20 years of experience in it.
- You gotta surround yourself in good art to know what good art looks like, make or move to an environment where you’re constantly surrounded by good art.
- This is a small industry, it looks big but it’s very small, so be humble, be nice, learn from others, don’t put your art so highly, it’s your job to please your director and producer.
