Take care of yourself first and always! Animations and everything look awesome! I look forward to seeing more, but only when you're at a place to progress.

Do you have a link for that part? Google isn't helping me out much here. Thanks!

Props to you on this, and I hope it gets you there. You clearly have talent!

The thing I don't get about this, is why do you have to build a machine to prove this. This isn't a question to you, but the manufacturers. The entry point is completely wrong. You should have a catalog of 10 designs ready to go, and then maybe something half baked to show it actually works with real physics. If you get picked up, you won't be doing engineering, coding, building, etc. So you show you have a lot of skills that will then never be used.

The process seems to be grabbing a jack of all trades and making them a design king, when instead to me it would make more sense to get someone with 10 good designs, argue through them, and find two that make good titles. Then learn from that and others within the team to create more designs.

But I digress, once again, your work is amazing, and I hope this is a nice stepping stone for you, as clearly there are some great ideas that you can execute on!

There are certainly benefits, and it helps round out. Yeah, everyone pitches in as needed. But a designer doesn’t lead electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, or video/programming. So you demonstrating those skills is great, but also shouldn’t be a barrier to entry.

Like any job posting, if our designs are both good, but you have these other skills, you’ll get the job every time. Nothing beats showing a physical machine, as your many awards prove!
