A lot of people also wonder if it's necessary to pay for courses or attend an animation school, or if you can teach yourself animation. They also wonder if it's actually all worth it in the end, money-wise - if they will earn a lot of money as an animator - and if they will even be able to get a job in the animation field. in this video, I'll address these questions, and drop some truth-bombs about animation industry problems which are not always mentioned to those entering the animation industry, since it's always good to find out about animation career truths.
So get some animation school advice, find out where to start and what they don't tell you about the animation industry, and learn how to become an animator.

I feel like i learned more by trying and failing on my own than at school. After working at a concept art school for 4 years i noticed that the most important things you could ever learn is Problem solving and taking criticism well . You have to have some thick skin in this Industry

I went out and bought "The Animators Survival Kit" because of this video here a couple months back. I love reading all of the information within those pages and I can definitely tell it will help me in my future. I currently am studying Computer Animation at a university here in the states and I refer to this often. Thank you for your content!

2d Animation has been a dream since I was in middle school! I've finally decided to start my journey! I'm currently on a youtube binge for animation tutorials and advice and I stumbled on your channel! Videos so helpful and funny I subbed, have an awesome day!

I am currently in high school and really want to go towards animation as a career. I've heard many great things about going to an animation college, but I'm honestly really scared of spending 4+ years at an animation college to only end up not getting a job (or get laid off of a job and won't have a income). I've heard that you could do online courses of animation and use college to go towards something else for a backup, but I'm not really sure what to do in college then.

Thanks for the information! I'm currently in high school and I want to learn how do 2d and 3d animation, as well as do game development. I know it'd be hard, but I'm certain that it's gonna be worth it in the end

This is what I was thinking about yesterday. There is so much to consider and once you are done studying at some institution. You still end up learning so much more once you are actually on the job!

Self-learned here! These days its far easier getting into 3D (For free) than when I started out. Fun watch ^-^ make more plz

Great stuff. Good point on the accredited course vs self taught. I finished my B-Tech Industrial Design in 2007, and similarly have found that many people can do a product viz in 3d (in fact any half descent generalist) however, the designers with "formal" education digs into how a person will interact, what is it made of, can it be produced, if used in mid or upper Africa, what are the UV stabaizers needed and a whole lot if other considerations.
Your channel is onto something and will do well because of how it is presented. Clear, easy to follow, well structured and OBVIOUSLY, experience.

Sincerely, I ask myself a few questions. When it comes down to it, I want work that makes me feel good and satisfied to be where I am. I want to contribute to something. Managing deadlines and stress levels is actually something I find quite difficult to do — I mean, I just have to look at my college experience to know this — and, little old me has chronic anxiety to live with.
But then, I do believe I could have the skill levels to get into the industry, if I am willing to face my fears, that is.

loved the way you pop up in begin !

Thanks for another informative video. I'm slightly older than those coming out of Uni and am currently thinking of retraining and the advice and truth bombs you provide are invaluable. Looking forwards to watching some more videos soon.

I just started experimenting this kind of "hobby", but I was curious to know whether people could do a living out of it.
Greetings from Italy! Thank you Robyn!

This is such an awesome video, so many truth bombs and so rewarding. For my part learning I learned most of my skills on the job (Ironically from Robyn). One major thing I've learned is this is a constantly evolving industry, so even after leaving college you never stop learning and are always challenged. Really great that you are doing these videos. As it is a resource that is sorely needed especially in this industry.
