Nice tips especially the salary part ok overall is great. Now my issue is unreal engine experience. I was so close to getting a job offer until 1 thing. Uhhhh so gotta make time learning that even though I have game engine experience. But lots are properitary stuff. But the plus is if development was 6 months deep. They would've brought me on but not the current pre-production stuff. I last used u e like 10yrs for a game that got canceled at THQ. Oh another offer was relocate to Vancouver. I said I can't this isn't the best time right now. If my son was in his last yr of h.s and it was the yr 2026 I could do it. Since he grads May of 2027.
What if we live in the U.S. and most jobs are being outsourced to other countries? Can we still work from home, like say I apply to a studio in another country and work for them even while I still live in the U.S?
It's possible, but the US probably has one of the biggest # of animated projects. So if you're in the US you have the highest chance of landing a job in the US.
Hey Rex thanks for watching. We actually have a Black Friday sale going on right now until the 30th, or until the coupon is used by 50 people. I think there are about 28 left at the time of this comment. www.toanimate.ca/
Thank you for the vid, it was very helpful! One thing you forgot to mention is to learn Maya, because for today, still only about 5% of 3D animator job postings require you to know Blender
Very good point. I'm not sure about the percentage as there's no statistics on it, but majority of big studios right now do use Maya. For the best chance I think animators should learn both programs
thanks for this amazing video. Is it mandatory to have a degree in animation school before applying for a job? because you can buy online courses or watch tutorials and still have the same skills
Hey, not at all. The majority of studios only care about your ability to animate and how well you'll mesh with the team. Rarely anyone cares what your credentials are and from where.

Hello Brian thanks for always producing great content. One question I have is will there be any holiday specials on any of your Animation Courses?

Say you're just getting into animation for the first time. Should you go to school or learn it online?
Another banger... I should move fields.
Haha
Hi, is it possible to get a job as a video editor in a animation studios?
It's possible, but it will likely be more of a post-processing work.
Most likely smaller studios working on ads will have video editors.
legendary as always! hope you doing great buddy!
Thanks Mark!
