I was watching Sym-Bionic Titan, Genndy Tartakovsky latest work, and it felt as if he was using it to experiment and stretch himself. Of course this is the man whose done work for such beloved animation work as Dexter's Laboratory, the Powerpuff Girls, and Samurai Jack. He's a man of considerable talent, but this latest series felt as if he was creating something new, something to go a bit farther – to transition himself to an even more advanced set of skills and work.
"A transitional work" is what I christened it. It inspired me to talk about the fact that many of us need do have works that let us change who we are and what we do in our careers. It also gives me an excuse to go from giant robots to discussing your career – something I love to do.
