so i guess i'll ask it: is anyone going to apply? or just talk shit about 2A the whole time?
------------------------------
so i have my answer....

f_18 your lips sore homie?
- toastie0
maybe i should apply :) i'm intermidiate with everything that's on that list (except for CF, which i despise and refuse to learn) and expert in 5 of them. the only problem is lack of industry work experience and having nothing to show that's not under some NDA. Oh well.

toastie, i've seen where the 2a offices are... and trust me, you don't want to be living there. esp coming from a place like NY.
unless of course you like boring orange county suburbia
- swollenelbow0
you guys are very funny. i don't have that rack of skills, but i am passionate about success and what i do, i do well.
sorry 2A, maybe some other time.
peace frilla!

haha, i know nick, im stayin in NYC awhile. Plus, I'm one of the haters when it comes to 2a :)

I'd consider applying for kicks if it weren't that some of my own work is effectively the anithesis of their mostly-Flash-driven sites. ;)
I do have a lot of respect for their work, that being said however; they obviously have some skilled and talented motion designers.
- toastie0
yeah, 2a's got some mad talented folks working there. the way that talent is put to use, however, is just not my taste i guess.

nick...nah, i just like repeating myself. i also get a kick out of seeing the amount of venom there is towards 2A, especially in these threads. honestly, and i've had this conversation with quite a few people (including some who work there), i just don't get why people love to hate them.

olá.
adeus.
- toastie0
everyone's just jealous :)
- F_180
honestly, it looks that way.
- nick0
i can say from the bottom of my heart that the fun i poke at 2A is not because im jealous of them. they're just a very very easy target. but hey, they're making it happen, and have been for quite a few years now, so i can't hate on them. 2A is just funny to me... and after visiting Orange County for the first time a few weeks ago, it just made it more funny.
- F_180
understood nick, especially coming from a person that has a serious body of work like yourself. but you said "easy target". why? what is so horrible about what they do that they are such an easy target? and who gets to make that decision? oh, and Orange County sucks indeed. You should've hit me up, I would've shown you a fucking good time in San Diego.
- toastie0
my problem with them is their flashiness. their shit is like a hiphop video, nice to look at, but not something you come back to after you've seen it a couple of times. All the spaceships flying from underwater on the intro screen, that's all a bit too much. That's coming from someone with no body of work, though.
- nick0
they're an easy target because they make cookie-cutter websites in the cookie-cutter capital of california. if they made websites that didn't all look like each other it would be a different story.
- nick0
like what toastie is saying...
i like smart websites with strong concepts that suit their purpose and make the user have a usable/enjoyable experience.
