It seems that birthday wishes really do come true\u2014just ask CG Spectrum 2D animation graduate Adele! While out celebrating another trip around the sun, she received an extra special birthday gift: a message offering her a position with Evil Pirate Studio to work on the highly anticipated animated TV series Cyberslav<\/em>.<\/p>\n We chatted with Adele about her journey from student to industry professional, the lessons she learned along the way, and what it\u2019s like working on an iconic animated series that blends ancient Slavic folklore with futuristic technology. From animation techniques to personal milestones, this interview is a must-read for anyone pursuing a career in 2D animation<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n After finishing my studies, I started looking for art and animation-related positions. At that point, I reached out to numerous studios not only in my country (Kazakhstan) but all around the globe, and I viewed remote work as an option, too. I was also open to any kind of animation technique and software, whether 2D or 3D since I have some skills in the latter as well. But, my lifelong passion is tied to drawing by hand and traditional old-school animation.\u00a0<\/p>\n To be honest, I didn\u2019t really expect my first job in the field to be what I had always dreamed it would be. Yet that dream came true: Evil Pirate Studio, based in Saint Petersburg, Russia, responded to me with an exciting offer! I\u2019m now working on a project that I heard about way before I even started learning how to animate.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n My strong intention to work on a wide-scale hand-drawn animation production and Cyberslav<\/em>\u2019s need for skilled 2D artists turned out to be a perfect match.<\/p>\n![\"cyberslav-tv-series-poster\"](\"https:\/\/www.cgspectrum.com\/hs-fs\/hubfs\/cyberslav-tv-series-poster.webp?width=600&height=900&name=cyberslav-tv-series-poster.webp\")
