How to start a small animation team (with proper funding)?

By Miguel | Wednesday, February 10, 2021 at 2:17pm

I'm currently working on a project that, if all goes well in these troubled times, will get funding.

The project is a set of twelve 3 to 5 min. episodes showing the main events of an historical character's life in a cartoony way.

Having made some 2D animation in a solo manner, I'm looking for some advice and input from the community about the best way to go around and build a small (2 or 3 person) online animation team after the project is green-lit.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Animation Networking

By JP | Monday, February 1, 2021 at 3:34pm

My friend and I have started a small animation company. We're doing a 1 minute trailer now in the hopes of winning a grant which will allow us to create a full length 8 minute animation. We have enough people to do the 1 minute trailer, but for the 8 minute animation we'll need more people. We need a Sound Designer, a VFX person, and possibly a character modeler. The crew we have now works remotely. I live in California, the storyboarder lives in South Africa, the concept designer/modeler lives in Italy, another modeler lives in Pakistan with the animator.

How to start working in the animation industry as a self-taught artist in Europe?

By ivhseo | Sunday, January 24, 2021 at 1:26pm

   Hello, I'm an 21 years old romanian. I'm new to this industry as I have no experience (I'm self-taught) and working on my portfolio. 

 I'm looking for someone experienced who has time to answer some questions and clarify some aspects about working in Europe :)

 How exactly am I supposed to start? I understand that I should build a portfolio and apply to jobs in relevant countries but how do i build up the experience (minimum of 2 years) the majority of employers are asking for? 

How tight is the competition?

How to understand the capability of an illustrator?

You must be keen to know how to understand that if the illustrator you are about to hire is capable of doing your task or not. It is way too simple! Just go through his portfolio and see if that illustrator has done something similar to your project before or not. It would help you get to know more about the illustrator you are about to hire. However, all the top children's book illustrators usually master in all genres. So you either hire the best one or don’t hire any. What do you prefer?

1. Determine dimensions/shapes to assign backgrounds and animation

Animation Internship in the USA

Hi, I am an animation student from Spain. I study a Master's in animation at a public university. I would like to ask what your advice is regarding asking for an internship abroad, especially in the USA (Disney, Warner). I am pretty interested in 2D animation and Creative affairs. So I thought of asking for internships about these. But the tjing is I need to be officially able to work in the USA. For doing that I must ask for a permit, but I am not sure which one should it be (perhaps H-3...) for an internship in my case. Here is the information that I found.
