Im back and also a thought i had..

I had a thought that crossed my mind just now and i was interested in reading everyones opinions.
Would you marry someone who is in the same line of work as you?

I was just thinking about how I might find it annoying if my wife was a designer or flash animator like me. Like I might find it annoying having my wife peer over my shoulder and give me criticism. On the other hand, i could see how someone might find that really valuable.

For the sake of an example, Tom's wife, April is a programmer for a firm, and Tom is a programmer... ive never bothered to ask him about it but i wonder if she shoots down his pico 2 ideas or somethinnn or is like Tom your code is so sloppy hon.

Anyway whats your take on it? Yea yea i know the whole love is blind bullshit but im just curious if you'd find it be distracting.

Tom really is the luckiest man alive.

Personally I think I'd like having a partner who's in the same line of work as me, that way you can toss ideas around with them and stuff. My friends gf is staying with us atm since her housemates haven't moved in yet; we all talk about programming, games, science, religion.. nerdy shit, and she just sits there and doesn't really engage in the conversations half the time which is really annoying :/

In general, yes I would. But as I'm doing a maths degree, i would hope not.

I think the question of marriage and profession is a tough one, but what I have been very wary of is ever getting into a situation where I lived and worked with a girlfriend or wife. I don't think that would last being with someone at work then at home and never really having that space.

But I absolutely think that whatever you're doing your spouse should be interested in. Fiance is a marine biologist and since I am a diver we get along fairly well, and she's also very supportive of my games so everyone gets along.

yeah it is, but the movements are too big, like with the jaw and eyebrows.

jack black has crazier expressions than that

No the amount youve moved is fine but its too much of a jump between point A and point B.

Even if my girlfriend was a musician/animator/shitty programmer it'd piss me off because she'd be constantly criticising me, and I can see why people would find that useful but I prefer to find my own way around things and improving things.

Also, what do you guys want to see in a platformer. I've got acceleration and deceleration, wall jumping. By the way, this is just player based - nothing about enemies.

I work with my wife. She does more coding sorts of stuff, and I do flash, 3d, and music things, but we both do design. We can both be legendary assholes, but it's always short-lived. I'd rather be doing it this way, than for some soulless firm full of "experts", who wear nerdy glasses, collect ugly trainers, smoke smelly fags, and bending over for an AD who thinks he spray farts roses.

Tie man?

I like working with my dad.

I think i'd like to be with someone who's in a similar line of work, however not the same thing. If i was a 2D animator for a living, It might get annoying with someone always going "hey, you should do it like this!" after a while, even if it was me saying that, i could just tell the other person could become quite annoyed.

However, if for example the lady friend was a 3D artist and i was a 2D artist, that would make things much different, and even fun. Cuz then you could teach each other the opposite thing without being underminded at your own.

Even if she was a painter or something, she could help the animator with his 2d art and he could give her tips on . . . bringing action and movement to a still picture! XD maybe..

Well, thats my 2 and a half cents, was it decent?

Like Duchednier was saying...

It's a partnership, with mutual benefit as the ultimate goal. Some people can do it, while others prefer lonely solitude. It's really whatever way you like to work, and who you choose to do it, or not do it, with. :)

PS I'm in love with the bloody "anti texting while driving advert". You peeps think it's a problem in the UK? Try driving in Los Angeles. So much stupidity.

How funny is it that these ladies are listening to a shitty cover version of Cream? Bwa ha ha.

It took them 6 weeks to make that game, dear god !

This really makes me want to get into game developing, seriously.

Besides, making games is a lot of fun, I am really enjoying making the animations for my game...

Making games is fun until there's a problem or you find a bug and spend all night trying to fix it.

Animating is fun until you have to do thousands of frames and spend four days without any sleep to finish a the non-inbetweened animation.

This is a genius little site, it translates an English phrase into Japanese and then back again until equilibrium is found. Give it a go and you'll see what I mean. Watch your grammar though, typing ill instead of I'll, for example, with make it go mad:

"And when I fall asleep I dont think Ill survive the night, the night." finally translates as "His first two diseases, one of two first two books in one last one last fall for two copies of each one how to survive in some of the single beds."

I keep on trying to post here, but whenever I come here, you guys are always talking about shit that I'd have to read 10+ pages back to understand.
