    man, the security at the place i'm working at now is crazy. i'm not allowed to keep any of the work i've done, not even jpegs... i can do 50 amazing pieces of art for a film and if they don't go to print i never see them again. it's like giving birth every few days only to have your babies stolen from you in the hospital.

    i'm also not allowed to announce on social media finishes i've done even when the movie launches and the posters are everywhere. i have to get written permission to even put them in my portfolio, which then has to be password protected.

    fuckin' nuts!
