Animation Job Teaches Employment Lessons

It just so happened that Buoyant Duck, an animation company out of Long's home town of Baltimore, was looking for an animator that had a general knowledge of Mayan culture and history. Long's reel including Mayan Temple animation obviously got Buoyant Duck's attention. This lucky coincidence that helped launch Long's animation career may be dismissed by some as a fluke, but this dismissal would overlook some very valuable career lessons.

Encourage Luck to Come Your Way

Long's career in animation took off because he found a perfect opportunity. He not only put himself out there as a job applicant, but obviously worked pretty hard on his animation reel. Yes, it was lucky that he had experience working with Mayan culture, but that luck was supported by a lot of ambition and hard work.
