My experience has been doing it pretty much entirely through work chat IM. But also working in animation the needs are usually pretty simple like “this scene is locked by you, can you unlock it for me?” Or inquiring about background updates or something. So it’s fairly easily to just get to the point.
yeah, i’d like to see us abolish email and turn things into slightly long IM’s.
I’ve been struggling for years to condense several thoughts into a single IM, not to blow up the recipient’s attention.
