Got a message (semi-personalized form letter) from Skillshare asking me to teach a class. Has anyone done this? Is it worth it monetarily and timewise?

Got one as well. It's intriguing but I wouldn't know where to begin. They're pitch came off a lot like a be your own boss scheme

I got one too. Yay us.

Me too. Sounding like a scam

I got one and a more strident follow up. “Passive Income” was a red flag.

Good to know. If this many of us are getting them and payment is by percentage of viewership, I’m assuming it’s gonna be a very small slice of the pie unless I put my own money into marketing my courses. Which I wouldn’t

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
