Animator Interview Question:

Explain me how and when did you realize that you wanted to become an Animator?

Submitted by: Muhammad

I think I knew as soon as I was able to understand what animation was. Animation, and specifically drawing, was what I spent most of my time thinking about as a kid. I can't remember a time in my conscious life where it wasn't what I wanted to do.

In high school, I briefly turned my back on animation because I thought it was an uncool and impractical endeavor. Most of my close friends were brilliant academics who would go on to study electrical and aerospace engineering, biology, and computer science. I was the odd duck who was really into the art of animation and filmmaking. When it was time to choose a college, that's when I hit the ground running and fully embraced animation as a career.
