The Magic of Animation –Do You Have It?

Let’s face it, living in the highly competitive world that we do, the professional playing field seems the absolute heights of competition. As is true for all profession courses, the monetary investment is quite a big bump on the path to higher education.

The same goes for animation courses. So before you write out that cheque to an animation institute, you should do your homework and understand the scope of the degree, and what it means for your future profession as an animator. You can’t afford to just blindly invest in a future; you need to know your prospects before you do!


So (assuming you’ve done the needful and researched the pros and cons of a degree from Animation Institutes In Delhi/ across India/ abroad), let’s take a quick look at what it takes to be a professional animator, and how to get there.

To begin with, as exciting as a career in animation may seem, it’s definitely no piece of cake. On the contrary, it’s quite a bit of hard work! Long hours, sleepless nights, a fast-paced environment, every-developing technology, and looming deadlines… These are just some of the things you’ll need to live and breathe when you’re in the world of animation! But of course, if you’re passionate, dedicated, and hard set on getting into the field, then it’s yours for the taking!

Once you’ve got a degree from an animation institute, you need to get down to business and make your demo reel. A demo reel exhibits your talents and capabilities when it comes to all facets of animation –so make sure it successfully displays all. When animation agencies are looking for new animators to join the ranks, the first thing they’re going to look at is your demo reel. So be sure to stun them!

You also need to have a good and realistic knowledge of the animation pipeline. Understand the various kinds of positions available in the industry. Knowledge is power so make sure you have all the necessary technical abilities to break into the animation industry.

The art of animation is truly beautiful. Breathing life into the inanimate, is there anything more magical than that? So if you have what it takes, then go make all our worlds a little more magical!
