My Bio
I am a life-long visual artist with an omnivorous eye for sources of inspiration that I can find in the most mundane and unlikeliest of places but influenced heavily by the aesthetics of graphic novels, anime and video games. In the summer of 2011, I discovered Blender, a free 3D modeling program. 2 years later, I graduated from the New York Film Academy’s 1-year 3D animation conservatory where I received rigorous training in Maya, Photoshop, After Effects, ZBrush, Nuke, Mental Ray and more. After school, my technological savvy has allowed me to pick up new software with ease like Premiere, Illustrator and Realflow. As a generalist, every facet of CGI media engages me from vector graphics to 3D modeling/animation to Hollywood-quality VFX. I combine my mastery of the software with a cinematic sensibility to deliver very high production values.

Context: Received a 5-page contract with language that was too compulsory for my liking and given 2 days to respond. I translated legal documents for 6 years and know that there's a fine line between formal and intimidating. This one bulldozed through it.
The following is a legit chat transcript. Names have been changed to protect the moronic.
