Think Tank Talks: From School...On Monday November 6 at 6 pm (PST), we will be joined by Think Tank legends Fernanda Pizzolatto and Tomas Sackmann for a moderated discussion and Q&A. Since completing their studies at Think Tank, both have been able to step into some of the most renowned studios and work on some incredible projects. Hear all about their journeys, the challenges they faced, and what advice they have for current students looking to make the jump from school to studio.
These industry pros were once in your shoes, so this is a talk that you will not want to miss. Inspiration guaranteed! This is a free event with refreshments provided.
