#4 – A burning desire to create

Many of the responses we received boiled down to one thing: a passion for designing, creating, animating or imagining. If you’re an artistic person, this industry offers an almost limitless potential for you to exercise your talents and fulfill your creative ambition. Just consider some of the responses we received: Gichu Ule M. was drawn to the industry thanks to his “passion for animation.” Daniel S. was looking to satisfy his curiosity. Sandeep B. is “never bored” of his work, thanks to the creative potential of the field. Marcus R. might have put it best: “it was the only way to have my imagination come to life.” Arnau D.O. echoed that sentiment, expressing a desire to “create the unimaginable.”



The bottom line: if you have an artistic vision and the drive to see it brought to life, a career in film might be the path for you.







#3 – A love of animation

Animated movies and television shows offered generations of men and women their first glimpse at the magic of 3D animation. For Eruult C., it was the television show Jonny Quest, whereas for William Chad G. and Jamie S., it was movies like The Incredibles and Toy Story, that intrigued audiences with animations that were ahead of their time. Two popular 90s television shows – Reboot and Transformers: Beast Wars – also came up often, suggesting a lot of future animators grew up impressed by the potential of 3D animation. Reboot, for example, was the first 3D show to be entirely computer-animated.
