What most people don’t know about 3D animation
https://www.ntdaily.com/what-most-people-dont-know-about-3d-animation/
I found this article dealing with the misconceptions about working as a 3D animator. It is written by a working animator and he talks about the sub-specialties that are required to be successful. Beyond moving the character along the frame, animators also have to texture the objects, light the scene, and rig the models. The process of model rigging can take up to weeks at a time depending on what they want the characters to do in the film.
He also talks about the intense work schedule, especially when it gets closer to the release of a project. "some people can spend several days in a row working sixteen-hour shifts and sleeping under their desks."
Overall, I found this piece to be a fascinating look into the lives of a working animator. What are your thoughts on their intense schedule and the misconceptions people have about their day-to-day responsibilities?
