hard work has paid off

So, I started a year back with a target to get back into technical profession of software developers or technical artist. And for me, being from a programming background helped me get back to where I belong. I deviated from being a  programmer to a VFX artist when I discovered its a unstable profession and doesn't even paying as good as much you work hard. I started gearing up with skills of python programming language, so as to make aback into programming. The only lucky part that helped me that VFX too involves an area into which I can rise up as a programmer. So I kept going worked hard sat late night researching and writing code and making tools..

one of the encouraging factor was, some of my tools I wrote in MEL or Python were getting used by artist and some studios even before I landed at the current position. I used Creative crash as platform to share tools with artists but the most encouraging thing was when I succeeded in selling out some of tools I made in python.

Yes that has really helped and now I am back in business. And now I can really say...

now we are talking, Bitches !!!

It makes me extremely happy to a be back at a position that I have earned. I have self taught myself Python. Back on 6th of march I got hired by MPC on a designation of Pipeline software Programmer. The most enjoyable part is that what I am applying here has nothing to do much with what I learnt at Vanarts. So based on this I can also say one really doesn't have to go to a big school one can earn a position, all he has to keep loving what he do.

Few days before interview, my dad wanted me to try in the banking field since banking jobs are more highly paid and are more reliable. That might have been the end of my career. All that I have learnt and my graduation degree in computer science might  have gone in vein. I even bought books to prepare for exams of SBI Probationary officer. Even when I was not willing to I started going through the books.
I am far from home around 3 hr journey by plane and I remember when my Dad texted me saying "If you love what you do you would certainly achieve it." The next coming days I had call from MPC for interview and yea I gave my best. Later when I got back home I discovered their were few answers I gave wrong.

and within few days I got the news right on time of my selection. To add to my amazement Xentrix also decided to call me for joining (since I had already given an interview with them much before my interview with MPC) but they were late by few hours. I want to say Roshni HR beat HR of Xentrix (this is how it came to my mind) but moreover I would also prefer to be at MPC than being at Xentrix.

So now its going to be a month, my training sessions still going on and I have already started to help out artist using RT understanding some scenarios.

From what I have learnt by now MPC has got very sophisticated and strong global pipeline to help out artist with smooth workflow. It is time for me to return to MPC for the position the have given me an opportunity to work on...
