While watching the bonus features on the new Monster's University blu-ray there was one feature called "Paths to Pixar" which has Pixar employees talking about how they landed a job at Pixar. What I found most interesting about the video was one employee Kelsey Mann who's a story supervisor at Pixar tells us he has had so many rejection letters from Pixar, but it never stopped him from constantly improving his portfolio and show reel. He also says when he received rejection letter number 20 it stated that they "enter content" which gave him more encouragement to keep trying and not to give up. This video shows not only how hard it is to get a job at a studio like Pixar, but how also if you put the hours in and keep working hard you'll reach your goal.
