Animator's New Year 2008 resolutions



Animators are constantly thinking of their next goal, depending on what stage of their careers they are at, they are reminding themselves what they would like to achieve.

How can you do this? Can you plan your goals as any other animation project/shot where you do thumbnails, blocking and polish?

--What if? WHAT IF you accomplish them? How will this change your life?

Here are the top 10 resolutions ranging from Junior Animators to Senior Animators:

1.- Make a new Demo Reel
2.- Work on a Feature Film
3.- Work from home
4.- Make an Animated Short Film
5.- Get a job at a major Animation Studio (Pixar, PDI, Blue Sky)
6.- Enroll at Animation Mentor
7.- Transition from a 2D to a 3D medium
8.- Open your own Animation Studio
9.- Create your own Animated Feature Film
10.- Write an Animation Book

This mix of resolutions portrays very positive goals, while the Junior Animators want to enter the Animation Industry to spend all their creative energy in an "executing position", the Senior Animators have fullfilled a lot of their goals and are ready to move on to Animation related "thinking positions".

Asi es mi querido Mario, espero que en este año engrose mi demo reel con más animación de calidad, y entrar ya en algún estudio acá en México, para después cruzar la frontera e irme al extranjero, ahún no lo decido bien pero pienso que tomara uno o dos años eso, Otro gran proposito pra mi es ingresar a Animation Mentor espero poder lograrlo también a mediados de este año saludos! y feliz año 2008
