Things you wish you knew about animation when you were first getting started.
January 7th, 2009
I’m working on finishing up my syllabi for my upcoming classes at the Art Institute. I’ll be teaching both Character Animation and Advanced Character Animation. This has got me thinking about all kinds of things I want to convey to the students about not just animation, but the animation industry in general.
What are some things you wish you knew when you were getting started in the industry? What should they do first? Is there anything the newly minted animator should avoid?
