Welcome to this course!
Learn how you can break into this competitive and rewarding industry.
I give you insights I've gained from working as a professional animator for 10 years on major movies like Avengers: Infinity War, Ready Player One, Transformers: The Last Knight, and games like The Last of Us Part 2.
Ten years ago I knew nothing about animation and after studying for 1 year I landed my first staff job working at an Academy Award-winning studio and then on to blockbuster movies.
I will uncover the unspoken lessons I learned through real-world experience so you can have an advantage I never did when I started out. The industry has only gotten more competitive with greater access to training online and software so it helps to have every advantage and that's why I created this course.
This course is not an animation tutorial. It's career-focused strategies I learned by breaking into the industry myself. Most of this is not taught in school or textbooks. We will also hear from 7 other industry pros about their diverse experiences and backgrounds. I will speak openly and honestly so you can save time and energy by learning concepts I figured out the hard way.
There are several assignments throughout the course as well to help guide your learning and I've provided a downloadable pdf that has key takeaways from lessons as well as some supplementary material like the actual emails I sent to get my first job.
By the end of the course, you will have a roadmap and understanding about what it takes to get into the animation industry.
