Incredibly helpful

This show is enlightening and inspirational. The work/life balance stories in particular have been the most helpful. To know you're not alone, to hear that industry professionals who surpase your talent in every way struggle with the same realities you do. It's a good show for any artist, not just computer graphics, even though that is the focus, I think the message translates across the board to any creative individual.
