Remember: You do not own the work you are hired to complete. In twenty years, nobody will care that you were involved and you will derive no benefit from your participation. The only work that you will find personally satisfying in twenty years is the work that you do for yourself, on your own time, that nobody is hiring you to do. Even the the most amateur watercolor painting will bring you more recognition and joy than the "money shot" you spent three weeks working on for that blockbuster movie. You only own the work you do on your own time and that is the only work that will be meaningful in twenty years. Remember that I told you this, and get to work on your own projects. (nothing you are hired to complete will have any meaning or significance in twenty years no matter how time consuming it happens to be today)
