8 Tips for Dealing Calmly with Cricicism.

Dealing with criticism is tough. ...especially in the film/animation industry! We spend so much time coming up with the best ideas we can, hour after hour fleshing out that idea, then present it, putting our hearts and souls on the line ..only to have someone smash it to pieces. This sounds horrible, but its not! And it doesn't have to be! Criticism is how we learn and make our work better! Your superiors are in their position for a reason and they also have a better idea of the bigger picture. So learn from them and try to understand where the direction is coming from! And don't forget to get critiques from the people around you. Animation is a lot more fun and always turns out better as a team effort!
