PPP2: Creative Presence Interaction

Like stated, for the Creative Presence brief I contacted the versatile Macedonian illustrator The Micho (Тхе Мичо) in hopes of interviewing him. I did so through Facebook since I have been told by several of my friends that he is very responsive to any queries. To my surprise, he was extremely colloquial and cordial in conversation, and the moment I informed him of my college background he immediately gave me a personal contact number of the main creative director of Lynx Animation Studio. With his help I contacted Lynx Animation Studio and got an exclusive inter tour of their studio and all the specialized departments. Nevertheless, The Micho candidly told me to expose myself as an artist in the UK in order to form networks and connections, and even so gladly accepted to do an interview. I was first planning on having it in person, however, given the multitude of unexpected family and social problems I have been experiencing, I wasn't able to get to Bitola (his home city). Thus, he gladly accepted the interview through Skype or Email, which is how I plan on conducting it. As of this stage, I feel that he has already been of a colossal assistance for the contact he gave me with the studio I plan on working in after graduation for a bit. I've already started compiling the questions I plan on asking him, picking out which ones are necessary and which ones are redundant with a little help of internet sources.
