CG/VFX artist.
I work from home mostly in my own studio doing contract work, I have worked in several commercial studios, but like the freelance world more . I love it. I can work as much or as little as I like as long as the work gets done on time. Nothing compares to creating a character from nothing ,modeling, texturing , then adding the rigging and doing the animations. It really feels like creating a new life ! It isn't for everyone though. Often a character can take a couple weeks to complete and not everyone could endure staring at the same character for hours and hours just to get the mouth to move like I want. Or animating scenes that take days to do just 30 seconds of live action.

I started out as an EE and had some big name employers, GE, Cray, but I would never go back. I liked the creativity of EE work, but hated being bound to budgets, marketing, and the general corporate methodology.

Nice choice. Know two people doing that, and there's a shortage in it right now. Beaucoup money, and an unfortunate large and unending number of clients.

Interesting, I work in a Hospital myself so I sorta get to see what is involved with PACS though we don't directly support it (a dedicated group does that). We just rolled out the new Impax 6 client recently which ties into our servers more as it uses LDAP to authenticate.

I work as a level 3 server tech which is a job I got recently. I was working at the helpdesk before. One thing about a hospital environment is the pressure is always on, so it's something to get used to.

Lost my job cuz of the current situation. Now I am full time college using my GI Bill. Going into business. Engineering didnt work out too well for me.

Hopefully I can get as much money out of it as possible before Obama takes it away. Dont get me wrong, I really like the guy. But during the campaign both him and his buddy McCain made it clear they arent that interested in helping veterans. The way things are going I wouldn't be suprised if they take that money away within the next 4 years. Not that I'm complaining, the rest of the country probably needs it more than I do, I'd just like to get as much as I can before it happens.
