Nicole Dong Ms, Walker Ninth Grade Literature 04 December 2019 Career in Animation Working as a Multimedia Artist or Animator has been a dream for me since I started learning to draw and appreciate many animated films like movies or comics, just anything art related. Many people probably just watch an animated film or read a comic without thinking anything about it, but I like to think how long it took to make something like this and appreciate the artwork in it with the many people who also worked hard to make it. CAREER INFORMATION (GENERAL) Multimedia Artists and Animators are usually required to create movies and video games, and some do visual effects for video games and television shows too. They work by using computer software or writing their own computer code. An area specifically that I want to focus on is animation and how to make films
and create a movie, but also together I want to draw comics. I want to mostly focus on how to do animation and be able to learn how to create films because I am determined to learn as I want to create my own animations and comics too. Multimedia Artists and Animators are usually required to work 40 hours a week and most Multimedia Artists and Animators work in office-style work environments. There is nothing usual that I have seen about the number of hours or the nature of the work schedule which might relate to this job field. Qualifications for people in this field need a bachelors degree in computer graphics, art, or a related field to develop an impressive portfolio of work. Animators learn how to use computer animation software that they are required to and experience could be working with programs used to create animations or art experience.
