Moving irl and Game design school
10 years ago
Hello, everyone.
Thank you for taking your time looking at this journal. I'll simply explain that I'm moving in real life to another country to study a specific school there my country doesn't fully provide. Which would be game design.
And I'll throw in some info about commissions in the future.
So... about the moving. A bit complicated. But arrangements have been made and I'll be signing the contract in the first week of August. As well as bringing all my stuff in there.
The apartment itself is in a typical Dutch neighbourhood, so that's really positive. The biggest issue so far is the moving itself. So far away... costly to transport... just tons of stuff.
The school. Yes, I've been accepted by the game designing school. Not 100% yet as another instititute needs to verify my diplomas as well as making a loterry system. I have about 1-2% chance to not being accepted. That's good enough for me to prepare to move all my stuff over there. The definite okay I'll get is mid July. Next week.
I'll be with 29 other students going through 4 years of 3D visual artist. And the teachers estimate that a good third won't get through all four years. Won't be me! Because I'll be giving 150% throghout these 4 years. Why? Because this is my dreamjob <3
And now about commissions. I'll be doing a lot more art while I'm at that school so I can pay off my rent and additional costs to take off the burden for my parents. Rather drawing for money than doing other kind of job.
So, to get more publicity, I keep my prices as low as they are now, and increase over time as I improve myself. Right now, it's about 3$ per hour. And that is, sadly enough, not enough! I'll do a lot better once I do about... 7$ or more per hour.
So that everybody knows: I have to get about 500$ a month for rent, health insurance, internet, and mobile coverage. If that is all covered, than I can call myself a very happy naga! :D
Till I achieve that goal, I'll be working my ass off for little payment. Hopefully I'll make it through mentally x.x
Anyway. I hope for some support to spread the word around during the next 6 months or so till I get a decent stream of commissioners coming towards me.
Till next time, yours truly, Sasha~
