    if that is the case, then this is the result of keeping it under wraps, it sheds a little light on the situation, but is still deception.

      Re: Welp. I think I won at life.

      You have to understand that I'm running a business. These companies are paying me the 15k PER ANIMATION, which I'm able to complete in roughly 7-10 days from start to finish. This money also pays for the people I've hired to work on the animation with me. If you don't think a business can bring in 15k in that time frame you're just dumb. I've made about 8-10k per month ever since I began freelancing after working at Z-Line, I'm extremely motivated and active in my search for bigger and better clients because I have god damn goals in life that I'm actually trying to achieve. Just because you Aldentron are going to be a broke ass bitch your whole existence with no chance of achieving anything substantial in your pathetic life, doesn't mean we're all like you.

      The Las Vegas event cost me thousands upon thousands of dollars, don't see how that was faked. Believe what you want, either way, you'll continue to be a pathetic waste of a human ;D

          That's one hell of a resume booster. Kudos. ^_^

          If and when you do a full length animated film, hopefully I'll have established a film scoring rep. I work cheap, too. Only 10k a week.

            Also DS, how many hours do you put in to each animation on average?

                90-110 or so. The first one took near 130 hours, Only because there was a learning curve involved in some of the dynamic simulation I had never done before.

                    Guess that explains why he will never get $15k paychecks for himself.

                      Re: Welp. I think I won at life.

                      Those hours have render times included as well, so whenever I start rendering a scene I actually get to leave my chair and go out and do things, so the actual working time is usually about 20 hours less than that (depending on what's rendering in the scene anyway, I just did an 8 second particle animation that took 32 hours to render, 70,000,000 particles split across 10 partitions), still working 80 hour weeks average though.

                        I'm surprised at the amount of people who are proud that you're still getting unemployment checks even though you.. don't need it? :/

                          Get off unemployment and start reporting that income, or it will be only a matter of time before you post a thread asking us for money to deal with the consequences of the MASSIVE AUDIT you're going to be taking up the ass sooner rather than later.

                          That's 20,000 dollars a year that could be helping people who are actually struggling to find work, not struggling to hire enough employees to keep up with all the work they have.

                          Don't be that guy DS.

                            Yep. Not worth the risk, especially when you've been fairly public about things. Getting audited sucks and you really don't want to game the system.

                              I like how my motive is "You're keeping money from the needy and abusing the system" and Rubix is just warning you that you don't want to get caught :P
