The day is Oct 18 2022. The very cool guest speaker Joe and friends spoke about their experience in microsoft and the various spectrums of work that might happen in the company. The current spectrums I aspire to do for professional work are not a lot. For me, my spectrums are not as broad as the chart that was shown. I hope to narrow it down to the “Broad Audience/High Information Density” spectrum. Perhaps entering the world of video games and creative media. (Maybe for example: concept art, art director, videos for entertainment, independent content creator, ect.) Before I wanted to get into video games, my dream job was to be an animator. I gave it a try and realized I was underpaid and undervalued. I really hated it. So, I hope when entering video games or the entertainment field, I will explore a much more explorative and enjoyable creative experience in my professional career. The pros and negatives I would imagine to this Broad Audience/High Information Density spectrum would be the market. I would not imagine the market to be as large as an informational site or search engine like Google. Many more users would be using Google than playing a video game. Not everyone has the time to play video games which leads to a smaller percent of people using said media. Honestly I only got the time to play video games because of the pandemic. Even so, I do not imagine it to be very profitable. Then again, I have no idea how the video game industry works, but it seems to be much more complicated and detailed than it is on the surface. I believe it would be cool to flex on people that you were one of the people who worked on their beloved childhood game. I keep looking online for graphic design jobs and they are always wanting graphic designers to do hard work and work well as a team. I think I can do that pretty well honestly and would enjoy my time working in a creative team to do creative work in the industry. I always hope to challenge myself in more ways I would never expect my life to go.
