Career Area of the Week:
How about an ANIMATOR? ANIMATORS use artistic talent to create special effects, animation or other visual images. They work primarily in the motion picture and video industries. They draw by hand and use computers to create the series of pictures that form the animation images or special effects seen in movies, television programs, and computer games. Some use clay, wood, sand models, and puppets to create three-dimensional animation. A portfolio is an important factor used by art directors, employers, clients and others in deciding whether or not to hire an ANIMATOR. A portfolio is a collection of handmade, computer-generated, or printed samples of the best work done by the animator. An animator with a good portfolio, but not training or experience, can succeed in the art world. However, putting together a good portfolio requires skills usually developed in a post-secondary art school program, such as a bachelor’s degree program in fine art, graphic design or visual communication
