Partly Cloudy With A Chance Of Impossible Demands

Client: “I want a 2D animated promotional video for my company.”

Me: “What style did you have in mind? Can you send me an example of what you’re thinking?”

The client sends me Pixar’s “Partly Cloudy” as an example.

Me: “That’s CGI animation. I usually work in 2D.”

Client: “Yes, CGI 2D animation. That’s what I want.”

Me: “Not quite. Also, that’s from Pixar. If you want it to look like that, it’s a little outside of my skill.”

Client: “I’ll pay you 400$ for it.”

Me: “…”

Client: “Okay, fine. 500$.”

Me: “…That’s a really tempting offer, but I’m afraid I’m going to have to decline because I think you deserve better than me.”

Guys… I think I just “it’s not you, it’s me”-ed a client.
