When I was a little younger, I was looking at 3D graphics as a career path, and I knew from the very beginning that if I were to do it, I would work towards Pixar. I've always admired everything they've done, both from an artistic and technical standpoint, and how well they've meshed those two worlds in an incredible and beautiful manner.

Same here. I'm older now and the dream is lost a bit, but in the beginning it really drove me towards some good and kowledgeable people. I worked in Film (and Animation), but once I saw the working conditions (low pay, long hours, difficult to find work) I moved to SWE.. I still rarely do some work on the side for VFX/Animation.. and I think that is the way I keep it so I don't loose the "fun" in all of it.
