Same goes like when people give feedback on your work.
When feedback is all nice and sweet no feelings start running up in your heart….but when feedback is not all super cool….we…artists/graphic designers….we tend to take it personal…..it’s hard to separate personal feelings when people give feedback that you don’t want to hear.
My tip is : leave your feelings at home…and look for solutions….it’s all a big puzzle….and there is ALWAYS a lost piece of puzzle

Mr. Andrew Kramer sir, i love you tutorials, your tutorials are the best cause the things you say before starting your tutorials make me laugh each and every time and also after that you get serious and get right to the point and teach us lots of important and useful stuff. Also inbetween you give some tips, which mostly no one will give cause they are very basic(as some other person might think), but they are very useful and they come in handy. I am the biggest fan of yours sir.
Right now i have taken a course in an animation institute, it has just begun a few days back, but i guess i know a hell lots more than other students in my class cause of your tutorials. i thank you for that. And i also want to thank your friend mr. sam loya sir (sorry if i spelled your name wrong). i hope that i get to see you someday in making of more funny+useful+the_best_tutorials_available & also looking forward to be a gr8 compositor and a gr8 person like you. bye take care.

I completely agree! For those of you out there who might be a little younger and maybe not have as much experience, this is a valuable lesson to learn. I have had a number of positions in my career that have been on both the supervised and supervisory in nature.

When I was younger, I thought that I needed to explain everything in order to impress the boss or to make sure people were aware that “I knew what I was doing”. BIG MISTAKE! The boss (at least a good one) doesn’t want to hear how you are going to do something, only that you can. And if you can’t do it, they want to know that you will find out how.

Let your work speak for you. A shot or project completed on time, done well and under budget speaks much louder than any technobabble about expressions ever will.

Besides, as log as you’re getting paid what you agreed on and you take pride in your work, you should be happy.

Kramer, you are very right.

I guess its the destiny of us CG artists to go unnoticed till’ we get our job done.
I too get unnoticed since Im always stuck with my NLE in my workplace in our Regional Network Group. Anyway, whats important is that its God Who will be glorified with our every work.

Anyway, tnx for the great tutorials man.
God bless

Well,

I’m a wedding cameraman. The same thing happened to me years ago. Nowadays I work for more than 150 photographers. Andrew, you’re the man.
