Review: A valuable insight into this amazing industry that will only get you even more excited for it! - An incredible insight for anyone looking to get into this amazing industry! Great advice from top designers from various studios/disciplines. Don't expect this to teach you how to make anything in any software, it's more about the process and focuses more on the design side of things over animation. After all it is the design that drives the animation, fail to make a great design and it doesn't matter how nice the animation is. Lots of insider tips for those looking to break into the industry on how to approach work and what they look for when hiring new talent. I'm sure there is plenty for someone with more expe too but this review is from a student's perspective.
