QUESTION : TO 2 OR 3 D ANIMATE AS CAREER?


The handwriting is clear on the wall, the world is moving toward the 3d animation style; and when I say the world, I mean most American and European animation Studios. This does not necessarily apply to the Asians, who as of today still prefer the Japanese hand drawn Manga style.  
The truth is, if you hope to get a quick placement in the industry after grad, studying 3d is advised, today the Game, Animation and Movie studios need it like mad - however that is not a guarantee for placements. There are many good 3d artists out there and for you to compete with those you must be well grounded. Being well grounded in this sense requires that you have a good mastery of 2d hand drawn animation style and be able to 3d Model and Rig, in addition to animating. Having most, if not all of these skills at your disposal would give you an added advantage, especially at smaller studios or while working as an independent.
But hard as it may seem, 2d continues to make resurgence in the animation industry. Even after Disney shut down its 2d animation department, they still experimented with a 2d animation shot called: “THE PAPER MAN”, combining both 2 and 3d animation styles, does that bring anything to mind? Even the internet and Cable stations, like the cartoon network, still show a lot of 2D animations for long running TV series, because it is faster to produce. Also put in mind the amount of money the “WHITE BOARD ANIMATION” style is earning as of today. This is a sub-set of the 2D animation, and presently it attracts the marketing industries all over the world. Even though it is mostly done with the computer, it easily captivates people’s attention because it follows a natural drawing approach that our preconceived minds easily associate with – I wonder if using 3d for such white boards would reenact similar feelings.
