Some thing I wanted to said time ago..
Introduction:
For first, Yes, I live in a very sad and poor country...The country is beautifull, but the goverments are horrible and Mafia People.. sometimes the people is lazy too, no matter..
Yesterday I was checking some alumnis animation videos from my ex animation school, I`m so glad that finally I decided to leave that school. My partners were very bad on drawing and animation, they always been envious with other people, and If they could steal the creations of your projects, they did in freedom.
I was very upset with my studies here, this carrer in my country isn`t comun, and Its make me sad in all ways.
This is one of the best animation reel I found yesterday:
[link]About the teacher from this school, are all negligible. I had worked with them , and They just want you to work hard and never been like them! There are a lot of competition, envy and crazyness. So I`m working in other area, yes, just Illustration. The world of comic and Illustration, you can find a lot of interesting people, I have a lot of friends on there, and the people is not like the animation one.One of the reazon, yes, Its true, the animation midle is very little here, and Its very hard to get a job on that. This is one of the studios here in Argentina that stole me months ago, before I was in Comic Con :
[link] This people made animation just to make money, and Its horrible, I just did some designs for a tv serie, and they spoke to me about a job inside, so I did it, when I finished my work, they told me that they call me back, they never do that, so I did, and then yes... the answer of my MILLION QUESTION about What about the work position? was.. Samy, I`m very glad that you call me but in this moment we will use an artist from here, but thanks so much for your designs, we are going to use them for the production... aha... and... Who is going to pay me back for the designs I did for your production?.. No, It was a test, but they are going to use them, Thanks a Lot! ... now you are thinking about wich was my reaction right?... well, I was in the studio, and I fighted with the people from there, for my respet and my money, I was working very hard to make the character, you know? but They leave me from the building and told me never back again, they laughed at me in my face...
I was very depressive,my grandfather died too, and my ex boyfriend live me all in the same month, yes, It was the MOST suck month of my life!
people said that when something very bad happend in your life, something very good is coming... I belive in that, 3 weeks late, a guy I added on my facebook, time ago, invited me to Comic Con, I was thinking to run to Brazil, and make my life on there, but.. what happend If I change the plans and I go to Los Angeles?, so The dream that I always wanted is go there, and meet my friends, like
[link] 8 years talking on the net and never meet in person! So I did, I was in San Diego, I meet amazing people from there, and I see that the people there wants to help you in all ways, If You are studing animation, they can bring you experience! It was the most fabulous and amazing trip I did in my whole Life! so they guy who invited me, now, is one of the most important persons of my life, He is my partner, my best friend, and my boyfriend! He is the owner a Video Game company from Texas, a very sussefull person, and Amazing guy! Its really not important to me the things he did in his job, It just he belives in me, and give me all the inspiration for not be sad and depressive again, just to see the future... Now he visited me here, on Buenos Aires 2 times, he showed me how much he loves me! So I decided to stay with him!

he change my life!
I just wanted to writte this because several mails that I recibe from people that want to study animation, wants my advice, more from here, Argentina. that the industry is terrible and you don´t have a professional future.
If you follow your dream, Don`t stop to dream in! I just dreaming on this when I was a child, to be in a great animation school and make movies for kids! everybody laughed on me! but I never stop to belive! draw is my passion, and I know is yours too, If you love the things you do, everyday you are going to be better and more better, because you are making art with love! Not just for life and have a salary every month to live, just you are living for your passion of Love! Not just for survive like here in Argentina and make just money!
I think is you put your energy and passion in the things you really want you can make bigger things!
The key here, is be possitive, and think in make it possible!
I decided to wait and change my way, and make my dream come true.. and I making it possible!
Thanks for read this!
Samy-
