Originally posted by hammer.horror i gave them my CV at the right time I guess, nothing special. I saw your website, you went to an art school and top of that you went to Escape studios sounds pretty special to me Originally posted by ben hobden ....Hammer, I guess this is as good a place as any to ask, I was wondering, how did you get your position as runner at your place to begin with?.....So did u know of the place anyway or make a list of places to send your cv too? How and why I s a question only his current employer can really answer, but overall I think he got a lucky break(which doesn't mean he hasn't put in a lot of hard work and effort) As a answer to your second question you better ruddy well make sure you know something about the company you work for and look at their style of work and if something within your portfolio resembles anything near their quality or shows a talent which promises a certain quality. If I were you start low Ben and work your way up it takes you longer to get there but you are a better 3d artist when you come out.
