The New Essay, potential interviews

So, for the new essay, we have been asked to contact and interview a minimum of 3 people who could link to our roles or something we want to write about. I plan to transition writing more about VFX instead of disability in the industry as it allows me to focus more on the work I want to do. From this, it narrows down who I need to research before interviewing them, but I don’t plan to narrow it down to specifically Game FX artists, potentially looking at Film and TV FX people along with branching out.

I have ordered them by Companies as they look neater and make it so there is less clutter for looking at them.

I also had a plan to message small-time editors as it runs a similar line of FX so could be helpful for my essay.

As For my Questions, I have no clue for what I want to ask yet…..
