Imagi的動畫學徒…

[Luckyalexli]

早兩日in了又做過了test，因為自己冇exp.，又住0系附近，居馬費都唔駛煩，所以對於人工都冇乜要求。
一心諗住個test都ok啦，因為我都系做學徒0者，唔會要求咁高掛…
但系事與願違，一直都冇reply到，唉……

現在HK搵工真系好難,一份普通工都幾百人去見。我都有見個CG學徒、in我個人同我講:[人工雖然好平,但你都系為左興趣0者!] 我心諗:[興趣都要開飯0家] 　　你話好吾好笑啦。　不過講真丫,做CG學徒都要有D實力。因為可能教你個人都無乜料!! 小心! 小心! (這是個人經驗! )

I heard some friends told me that Imagi has an age discrimination problem. They told me that if you are over 25, it's hard to get to be a CG trainee, but I am not sure it's true or not !!!
Anyway, I think age is not a matter of critical importance, the one's talent is the most important for any kind of job !
Good luck , everyone !!

real scenerio

one day, suddenly, your manager called u to conference room, and say now u have 2 ways in front of u
1, give up your career
2, your salary will be cut back by half (-50%)
and u of course dont want to give it up
and feel very very unhappy to continue your life

u still feel unhappy, so u go to speak to your boss
and your boss says
"this is hk market, if u want your dream, u have to be thin"

Here is my situation, I am a freelancer in 3D product design, and a full-time 2D designer in a watch company with a couple so-called 3D draftmen, why the hell I am drawing 2D, well because the workload is much less ma....but i didn't give up 3D anyway, I will give my best shot in free-lance as the client would appreciate it.
So, if you are really interest in 3D, that doesn't matter you are full-time or part-time, what counts is whether you stay in touch with the CG or not.

siegfried兄,我想問問你是怎樣找到freelance product designer做的?小妹我剛剛讀完product design的course,之前曾見過一份freelance product designer，可惜他們唔請我＞”＜，
有關deseigner的薪金，我想你真是打錯了！！
就我所知，product designer只有＄５０００－８０００，要有＄１０００－１２０００真系超難～～

rryria,

i have a colleague with same experience, if this happened on me. i will quit also. no matter what. the salary is low already. if u think i am not suitable, u may find other people, i also have to live, only interest can't feed.

Really can't imgine one can get over 20 k....

就是就是,
這個狀況,
實在好"蝦人"

現在擺明系機會有系度,
但要求的除個人能力,
仲要求大家要配合公司政策.
工作多多磨到個員半條命,
但薪金卻比其他類型的CG,平面設計,出版業低得多.
好唔明囉,假如公司真系咁難挨,
仲乜仲要搞呢?早早摺咗轉行啦.
我個人認為.
3d行業無論是product present,或者動畫特效
需要的個人質素及技術都頗高.
不少人都是在"帶技"入行.
得閒仲要不停私底下磨.
所花的青春時間比其他行業普遍都多.
卻落得只能糊口.
條數點計都好難吸引我去投身.

即使我自己是如何想真真正正天天摸動畫,
所有汗水為動畫制作而流.

現在我反而樂得像Siegfried一般.
把曲包跟理想分開點.
也是干住平面設計,平常再滲些立體制作入其中,
頂多自己私底下把私伙動畫放到網上promote自己囉.

clover:現在product designer新人遇到咁差環境,
點會有可能超過8k,諗返五年前我剛畢業時環境未有咁差,
當時薪金要有8k都要俾點努力.現在好難囉,仲要求返大陸跟廠單.真系死狗....
接著都干過autocad繪平面圖.
當時我都系拿唔到心目中想要的代遇.
於是咪嘗試去見其他有點相關的工作,插圖師,設計助理,包裝盒設計,draftman,甚至連琴行的素描班導師我都跑去見.
現在咪干緊出版業的平面設計,系就系同自己所讀的無乜關系.
但好在人工不錯.工作量又不是勁多.~~~~

既然大家覺得3D甘難，仲點解要做，轉做平面或者其他囉，將3d作為一種興趣就夠了。

I graduated in a Technical Secondary School, then Chai Wan TC in which I studied Product Engineering and Design, then further studying in City U for another Engineering field. My salary is about 15k-20k.The reason is because-I paid more effort than any other people around. Remember, keep studying, polishing your engineering knowledge and English are the key words to get higher salary and probably less work-load!
About freelance, get knowing more client, keep contact and offer them the best service with minimum charge!
