Cabanimation: Nic Cabana's AM blog: Life at Sony

http://cabanimation.blogspot.com/2013/05/life-at-sony.html

Wednesday, May 15, 2013. Wow, so much has happened since I last posted. I was on hiatus from the blog and got caught up with work. In September, I accepted an offer to work at Sony Pictures Imageworks- -and what an adventure and dream it has been so far! Recently, I was featured on Animation Mentor's official blog and asked to write an article on my experience. So I thought I might post it here for anyone interested!

Cabanimation: Nic Cabana's AM blog: May 2012

http://cabanimation.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, May 6, 2012. Yesterday night I finally posted up my rendered student reel, after a year and a half at Animation Mentor! Alex was incredibly patient and created some fantastic light setups for he shots, I can't thank him enough. He's a phenomenal lighter, and just as good at animating! You can view his stuff here https:/ vimeo.com/33488899. He's now at the head of the CG Spectrum program, which looks amazing! I'm truly humbled and super excited!

Cabanimation: Nic Cabana's AM blog: February 2012

http://cabanimation.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Friday, February 17, 2012. There are five weeks left. FIVE. I really never expected it to go by so fast. I've been absent from writing this blog for a very, very long time. Now that class is almost over, I'm going to start again. It was always a great learning tool- writing my thoughts about new material and animation. I shouldn't have stopped! Adam, I'm sure you'll be psyched about this one. Thanks for busting my chops. Call it nostalgia, because the end is near, but, dammit, I feel like writing! Dhar, ...

Cabanimation: Nic Cabana's AM blog: September 2010

Monday, September 27, 2010. Less than a Day. About two months ago, this day seemed so far away. I remember how much of a shock it was: pressing the refresh button on my GMAIL, thinking "you've already refreshed 10 times in twenty minutes, Nic, this one won't be any different;" but there it was, out of the blue- -a new message from AnimationMentor.com. " Congratulations! You've been accepted as a student at Animation Mentor. It didn't feel real; I was way too excited! We're in for a hell of a ride. I am t...

Don't draw what you see- -look at her and draw what you know! It took me almost two years to really understand that. It's one of the single most important things I've learned and I apply it everywhere. I think my love of animation spurs from that. It makes life so much more fun! Take a picture- -I'm sure you have an iPhone!

Cabanimation: Nic Cabana's AM blog: On my way to San Fran

http://cabanimation.blogspot.com/2011/01/on-my-way-to-san-fran.html

Thursday, January 27, 2011. On my way to San Fran. I'm currently waiting at the airport, anxiously waiting to end up in San Francisco later tonight. This morning, Rusty texted me that his flight was cancelled, and that he was transferred to a different flight. That meant one thing: we weren't gonna be on the same connecting flight- -which we had planned! Not too long after, I got a similar call from my airline. Turns out I'm transferred to CHI instead of Phili, and I'll only arrive in San Fran at 11pm.

Monday, November 29, 2010. Tangled.at the Disney Studios Theatre. As a bonus to top the incredible weekend off, we got invited to see "Tangled" at the Disney Studios, couple days before its release. When the movie started, they played the Steamboat Willie overture, and that really got to me. I thought to myself, "Wow. I'm at Disney right now. I'm at freaking DISNEY! And the movie was just MIND BLOWING! You guys have to go see the movie. Its a game changer for Disney. Hey guys. Man it's been a while!

Sunday, October 31, 2010. Week 5: Antics, Squash, and Stretch. So far I think I can say Animation Mentor weeks are nuts in every good way possible, without fear of being rebutted anytime soon. They're also challenging, and exhausting- -particularly this week. But anticipation can be so much more than a boxer winding back for a punch. In the lecture, they talked about how even a blink can anticipate an action. We have at our disposal a tool that can be so powerful in its subtlety. Finally, they left us wi...
