The TAAFI x CASO 2018 Job Fair was another success. Once again dozens of exhibitors and thousands of job searchers had a chance to meet face to face. There were also animation job related talks in the theatre (Presentation Zone) and animation portfolio reviewers who offered to provide portfolio advice to job seekers through out the day (Portfolio Zone).

I think Pipeline should get an honourary award for bringing more reps to the TAAFI x CASO Job Fair than any other studio each yeaar. This shot doesn’t even have everyone in it, but it was the most I was able to capture at the booth in a single shot.

I love these shots from above. I think next year I’m going to add a time-lapse camera here to really capture the amount of footage traffic.

And that’s another TAAFI shoot down! This is my “And we’re done here!” face. Keep an eye on the TAAFI Website/Facebook pages for further photos and videos from the Job Fair.
