It can be difficult to deal with a project shake-up. Being truthful with your clients and staff is the best course of action. Clearly describe the circumstances, the additional resources required, and how they will affect the finished work. Offering different approaches or a changed schedule might occasionally assist to ease tensions. To overcome these obstacles, keep in mind that open communication is essential.

I’ve found that clear communication and preparation are the keys to successfully negotiating for more resources or time. One approach that has worked for me is to outline exactly how the changes will impact the project whether that’s in terms of quality, deadlines, or scope. I also provide detailed options: what we can achieve with the current resources versus what additional support could deliver.

It sounds obvious, but I forget to do this all the time: don't simply complain offhand to a manager or partner about how strapped for time or resources you are. Demonstrate and communicate exactly what the issue is, and more importantly show exactly how having those resources would change your workflow for the better. It's not an automatic solution, but you put yourself in a better position to get those things.

1. Prepare a Strong Case - Assess the Need on what you need and why. Provide Evidence showing current progress, task complexity/ challenges. Estimate Impact on how additional resources or time will enhance the project outcome. 2. Engage Stakeholders: Schedule a Meeting with decision-makers. Frame your request of benefits to them for better quality/expectations. 3. Propose Solutions on areas where resources or extensions will make the most impact. 4.Highlight Risks of Not Acting and how it will compromise animation quality with limited resources. Timeline Risks, how unrealistic deadlines could lead to delays. Reputation Impacts: Show how the result could affect the company’s reputation. 5. Progress-Share Milestones of what has been achieved.

1. Evalúa la Situación: Determina qué ajustes son necesarios y cómo impactarán el cronograma del proyecto. 2. Prepara una Propuesta Detallada: Explica claramente por qué necesitas más recursos o tiempo y cómo estos contribuirán al éxito del proyecto. 3. Involucra a los Interesados: Comunica tu propuesta a las personas clave del proyecto para presentar tu caso. 4. Propón Soluciones: Sugiere de manera específica los recursos adicionales que necesitas (como nuevos miembros del equipo, software o presupuesto) y cómo planeas utilizarlos eficazmente.
