Wow, this presentation is a gold mine of information! I learnt so much about making portfolios and overall getting the recruiters to see your work, thank you so much for making this!
Thank you for taking the time to put this presentation together. Being an artist sometimes can feel like being a nomad- migrating from project to project. I appreciate you sharing the perspective of a recruiter looking through talent. Hopeful this info will be useful for redesigning my portfolio and approach to connecting with opportunities. Much love to all the friends at titmouse, and good luck to all the aspiring artists out there hoping to get noticed.
Thank you so much for uploading this! It would be a dream come true to work for you guys and I will definitely try and reconfigure my portfolio, social accounts, and emails with the tips you covered here!
Thank you very much for this vid, it's super helpful! Also for those wondering about gifs, I might also recommend gifcam, where you can screen record a section to record (or take a shot frame by frame) and convert as a gif. It's super helpful for me when I'm using a regular drawing program and want to see how the different frames are looking in sequence.
I know this is from three years ago, but I have a quick question. Now with the rise of AI I've heard a lot of conflicting takes about resumes - where it's important to make the resume ATF friendly so it can be read by the software. I've heard AI automatically rejects anything with images in it so it's best to keep it using certain fonts and simple. I've only ever been in post production on reality stuff so maybe it's different there, but I guess I'd just like to know if the animation industry has changed now that AI is so prevalent. Is it always safe to put images in for art jobs? Just want to make sure I can pass that first gate!
Wow! Great info! Creative people love to create, and there is infinite space for improvement, so that could be endless. Important to have some directions and cancel out the rest of the noise. I like the part about - "What problem would you rather solve every day?" because creating something for self-expression is kind of different from being useful, proactive, and working with a team. Thank you so much! I'm wondering if is it important to use your real name? because I work as a graphic designer "by day" and my real name LinkedIn profile ties in with my Graphic Design resume so I wish to use another name (like..NAME..studio for example) for my animation freelance gigs and job applications.
Hi I was wondering if it was necessary to link your real name. I know it may be a silly question but I wanted to remain anonymous due other personal projects. Would that still be possible or would it affect my possibilities?

How important is diversity at this company? In the video about internships, all of the interns are women and none of them are white. So. . .
