That’s the human equivalant of the “sir are you aware you are a cat” meme.

I thought I was Jewish when I was her age but I was actually Catholic so when my Jewish friends invited me to give a prayer at his house during Chanukah and I recited “Our Father who art in heaven…”, my friend’s mom got on her knees and said to my face in a super soft voice, “Joey, I think you’re catholic not Jewish,” in front of everyone and I thought I was in trouble and I started crying.

I didn’t know church denominations existed, I just thought Catholic was the thing you called Christian people? (You know, ‘cause the Credo…) So I said I was Catholic and my mum was like “No honey we’re Protestants” and I literally responded with “What are we protesting?”

Well I hear this guy, Marty, wrote up a list…

Never went to art school. I worked in accounting before getting into animation! All paths are open if you’re willing to do the work. You can do it!

Adding to this to give you internet folks some confidence.  I’m a high school graduate from Atlanta with a very low-income upbringing, and now I’m a storyboard artist at Cartoon Network Studios in Burbank.  It’s not easy (it’s never easy) but it’s totally possible.  Post your work online, get feedback from other artists, make friends, and dream big.  It all goes a long way! Also, there are VERY FEW CalArts alum on the Mighty Magiswords crew; I think only one of our storyboard artists - Zoe Moss - went to CalArts.  The importance of going to that particular school really is overstated, I assure you.

I didn’t go to CalArts either. Neither did lots of folks I’ve worked with. It’s just one way in of many.

Same. Shane and I didn’t go to CalArts and neither did the majority of the Country Club crew.

be hype i worked on it and its really good guys!!!
