1 Identify the root cause

The first step to resolving a strained collaboration is to identify the root cause of the problem. Is it a matter of artistic vision, technical skill, workload distribution, or personality clash? Try to be honest and objective about your own role and expectations, as well as your partner's. Avoid blaming, judging, or dismissing the other person's perspective. Instead, focus on finding common ground and mutual goals.

2 Communicate respectfully

The second step is to communicate respectfully with your fellow animator. This means listening actively, expressing your thoughts clearly, and using constructive feedback. Avoid being defensive, aggressive, or passive-aggressive. Instead, use "I" statements, acknowledge the other person's feelings and needs, and propose solutions that benefit both parties. If possible, communicate face-to-face or through video chat, as text messages or emails can be easily misinterpreted or ignored.

Of course communication is the key to solve the constraints and agree on any specific matter. Give your arguments and listen to the fellow animator's arguments. Research for your target audience and try to agree on a better design to communicate your message clearly.

3 Seek external help

The third step is to seek external help if you cannot resolve the issue on your own. This could be a mediator, a mentor, a supervisor, or a trusted colleague who can offer impartial advice, guidance, or support. Explain the situation calmly and objectively, and ask for their input or intervention. Be open to their suggestions and feedback, and respect their authority and expertise.

4 Compromise and adapt

The fourth step is to compromise and adapt to the situation. This means being flexible, willing to learn, and ready to make changes. Sometimes, you may have to accept that you cannot have everything your way, and that you have to respect the other person's creative vision, technical skill, or workload capacity. Other times, you may have to challenge yourself to improve your own skills, try new techniques, or adopt different workflows. Either way, you should aim to find a balance that works for both of you and the project.

Sometimes, the lifeline of a project is especially tightly bound to the dynamics of the team working on it. Whether for professional or personal reasons, if your relationship is becoming strained with a fellow animator or other team member, try to keep such matters out of the business of working on the tasks at hand. Toxic workplaces become toxic because personal matters muddle the quality of the work and the processes around it. Try to stay cordial, and if not possible, at least professional enough to maintain an open line of communication for the duration of the project. And if you're concerned that these matters could jeopardize the project, communicate with your supervisor about it before it gets out of hand.

5 Celebrate and appreciate

The fifth step is to celebrate and appreciate your collaboration. This means recognizing the achievements, contributions, and strengths of your fellow animator, as well as your own. Express gratitude, praise, and encouragement for their work, and share your positive feedback and results with others. Celebrate the milestones, the completion, and the outcome of the project, and reflect on what you learned and gained from the experience.

6 Maintain the relationship

The sixth step is to maintain the relationship with your fellow animator. This means staying in touch, following up, and offering support. You never know when you might need their help, advice, or referral in the future, or when you might work with them again on another project. By maintaining a positive and professional relationship, you can build your network, reputation, and opportunities as an animator.
