Hello 😄
Thanks so much for joining our unique and growing newsletter, we’re really glad you’re here.
By subscribing, you will start your journey to land a job in the 3D industry. Whether you are a beginner artist or anyone who wants to dive into the industry and needs help; or if you can't afford universities or paid mentorships ;we are here for you.
To be honest, I got into the 3D industry from a small country, Greece. I did not even know this was a thing; in my country, we don't really have much career advice or professional schools related to all this amazing 3D world. Somehow I managed it, and I want to be there for you, give back, and be the one to tell you what no one told me. So if you are a beginner, or lost, or disappointed, we are here for you to have big "group therapy" sessions talking about the industry, money, corporate life, and all the tough things in life. It’s a safe space and everything is open.
If you are already an expert or already inside the industry, you are fully welcome to join the group therapy with us, discuss the tough parts of the industry, and either offer help or receive it. It’s tough out there and we need a free industry therapy session all together.
I'm so happy to have you here.
A big P.S. note: this is very new to me, so if I’m not always consistent or don't immediately cover your expectations, I’m sorry, I try my best. I am always open to feedback and discussion on how I can be better. I have already helped and trained more than 500 people, and I will try my best to help you too.
Thanks again for being part of our community. We’re excited to share what’s coming next.
Talk soon, ALOHA
