VFX and Animation industry is a blooming one. The demand for visual effects and other type of cinematic effects has increased greatly.

This increase in demand is a good news as more and more artists are being hired and getting their deserved recognition in this field.

If you are really talented and have the required skills then you have the chance to show off the world your ability.

Here, interview is the way to judge or analyse your skills as claimed by you in your resume and showreel.

There are few techniques you should follow and a few things you show keep in mind for securing your dream job in this world of Animation and VFX.

SHOWREEL



The first and foremost thing, based on which you are called for the interview, is your showreel.

For an animator or a VFX artist it is very important to prepare a good showreel containing your best works.

What a CV is to the people of other fields, a showreel is to the animators and VFX artists.

It is the first thing on the basis of which you are judged. A short yet impactful showreel is what you must prepare to impress your employer.

A carefully edited video with a subtle music and obviously, comprising your best works are the things you need to make your showreel worthy to be selected.

Please, make sure, you do not mess up your showreel, by adding works which are not required for the job you are applying for.

If you are applying for a job of Matte Painter, there is no need to add motion graphics work, instead focus on creating magnificent matte paintings and add them in your showreel.

INTROSPECTION



You should think and take your time beforehand, to introspect.

You must know you key skills. You must know your area of excellence and should know your forte.

Obviously, you can do many things but you have to focus on your specialised skill and work out on that. From a diverse range of aspects, like Modelling and Texturing, Lighting, Compositing, Animation, Matte Painting, Tracking, Rigging, etc, you need to choose one.

In a production house there are different departments and each department is expected to give their best output.

So you need to prepare yourself in that way. Suppose you are very good in Modelling and Texturing, prepare yourself to become the best 3d artist.

If you belong to Maac Kolkata, you need not worry about choosing your specialisation, as they know it best and know how to bring it out in an individual seeking a career in this field.

UNDERSTANDING THE JOB



People have the necessity to secure a job and establish themselves.

But do not apply for a job randomly, just because you need one. You need to be very clear about the job you are applying for.

Do some basic homework and research about the job.

Suppose you are very good in motion graphics, go for that job, and do not opt for any other specialisation, as you won’t be able to give your best in that.

Also you need to understand the requirements.

As an animator or a VFX artist you need to be very fluent in every software, that is required in that specific area.

If you are applying for the job of animator, you must possess good knowledge of the Animation Principle; Aesthetic n software’s required in it, like AutoDesk Maya, AutoDesk Max etc. You need to work harder and polish your skills.

You need to have enough knowledge so that when you are asked about it, you can answer promptly.

Also keep yourself updated with the changing needs and requirements so that you never seem backdated to your employer.

As a student of Maac Kolkata, you get the opportunity to understand the job requirements better as you get the opportunity to interact with highly professional faculty and industry experts.

ETHICS



You need to be honest about your skills and achievements to your prospective employer.

In the interview do not boast about your skills. You should not seem over confident or know-it-all, as it would only put a bad impression on your interviewer.

Always answer back politely. And never ever start a heated argument with the interviewer.

They may say things of different opinion and wait to see your reaction, so it might be their tactics to see how you handle your seniors and how much you are capable of working under them.

“Smile, give a firm handshake and stay calm.” Remind yourself to give a firm handshake and a big smile.

A smile will boost your happiness and show your eagerness. Also, remind yourself to make solid eye contact with the interviewer.

All of these body language cues will lead the interviewer to see you as a more approachable candidate.

SALARY



In the interview, when you are asked about your salary expectations, don’t say a random amount.

You should do a research of salary expectations for the post you are applying for.

Saying a weird value on being asked your salary expectations will let the interviewer doubt your knowledge about this field.

Try to do a thorough research in the internet and also you may ask people from the field to provide their knowledge of salary expectations.

FEAR



It is very obvious to get nervous in the interview process.

Everyone knows how difficult it is to get selected. It is really a hard thing to have the ability to impress others.

You might be very talented in your field but the FEAR would be a great hindrance in the path of you securing a job.

The fear of getting rejected or facing the interviewers is a major drawback. You must know to overcome it.

As an animator you might possess required skill and knowledge but lack of confidence in yourself and having the fear of rejection wouldn’t be good for you.

Try to handle stress in a calm way. Do not get panicked.

Just chill and focus on your skills. Have faith in yourself and believe your ability.

Noteworthy, the faculty of Maac Kolkata knows how to help you to overcome your fear.

They will help you to boost your confidence with thorough counselling.

Appraisals and recognition’s are the things you need to overcome your lack of confidence, which you will get in Maac Kolkata.

They leave no stone upturned to inspire you and motivate you and help you build your career.

Now that you have got some good tips, gear up for your career and be confident enough to crack the interview with ease.

“I can do this” are the words that will boost your confidence.

The last thing you want to do is go into the interview already thinking you’re not going to get the job.

Never set yourself up for a loss when you can always set yourself up for success.

Don’t think of the interview as the top of the mountain.

Instead, think of it as a stepping stone on your way to the top. This will ease off some of the pressure you may be feeling.

Think beyond the interview and look at your future.

How is this interview helping you get to where you want to be?

Go ahead and give your best in the interview.

BEST OF LUCK!

6 SIGNS YOU SHOULD BE WORKING IN ANIMATION

Animation, at its core, is the process of creating motion.

If we are being technical about it, it involves an illusion of motion that is created by producing a series of images (or ‘frames’) that show a sequence of poses with slight changes from one image to the next in order to make a complete action. As a form of art, it has existed for thousands of years.

The earliest evidence of animation is found in cave paintings, which depict people and animals with several legs superimposed on one body to imply motion.

Since then, the concept of sequential drawing has taken on different shapes and forms: the phenakistoscope (a rotating disc with a sequence of images along the edges), the kineograph (better known as the flip book), the cinematograph (or film camera), hand-drawn and cel animation (also known as traditional or classical animation), and modern-day digital animation through computer software in a virtual environment (both two- and three-dimensional).

 Wall-E, a 3D animated film.

Animation as a medium for visual media became very popular on television with ‘cartoons’ such as Tom and Jerry, The Flintstones, Looney Toons and Scooby Doo, and the hit films made by The Walt Disney Company from the 1970s onwards.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast are films that we marvel at even today. Toy Story was the first animated film made entirely using computer software.

Since then there have been several gems of animated films that are made digitally in 3D, like The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Zootopia and more. The animation industry is booming, and without further ado, let us look at some signs that will help you understand if animation is the right-fit career for you.

You Enjoy Creating.



Creating and creativity is the heart and soul of every form of art, including animation. The purpose of art is to evoke emotion in the beholder, meaning that the aim of an artist when making a work of art is not just to represent his or her own thoughts and feelings, but to create them in someone who is an audience as well.

As a song lyric goes, “a story told that can’t be real… somehow must reflect the truth we feel“. Animation is a visual form of expression, and since sight is the most powerful sense for human beings, creativity can go a long way in leaving an impact. And if you enjoy it, not even the sky is the limit.

You Have A Sense Of How Things Move.



Do you find yourself thinking? ‘Hey! To make it seems as though my character is walking, he should be in such and such pose’? If you draw, then you must have had such a thought at some time or another.

Aesthetics or appeal (including visual appeal and presentation) is a crucial part of media, and of animation. Staging and posing are among the basic principles of animation, meaning that if you have an idea of how a character should look, stand, sit – or in a more general way, what shape the character or object’s body should be in – while performing a certain action in a way that a viewer can easily understand, you have an edge in animating.

Also important knows the line of action for any movement. Honing this skill is easy: observe things around you!

Theoretical Knowhow Is Within Your Reach.



For a practical task to be done to its maximum potential, it is necessary that there is a theoretical backing to supplement it.

In addition to being creative and knowing how things move, there are certain rules that are followed when creating an animated sequence – regardless of the mode it is made in.

These rules are called the principles of animation, and they can help you produce a good and appealing clip. MAAC is here to help you brush up on these principles through its various courses in 2D and 3D animation.

Technical Skills For Animating Can Be Developed easily.



Nowadays, both 2D and 3D animation are done digitally – i.e. on a computer using animating software – in most studios. For 2D animation, Adobe Flash is most commonly used, while for 3D animation, Autodesk Maya is the preferred choice.

This software can be mastered with some guidance and practice, which MAAC is ready to provide you with through tailor-made courses depending on which type of animation you want to learn and perfect.

The Animation Industry Is Booming.



If you turn on the TV, you are guaranteed to come across at least one instance where animation has been used. With popular kids’ TV shows made in India like Chhota Bheem, Mighty Raju, Pakdam Pakdai and Motu Patlu airing episodes regularly, the animation industry in India is growing steadily.

If you don’t want to work in TV, there studios that work on film projects, both Indian and international. You could even look for web-based animation series to work on – or start your own if you are feeling entrepreneurial.

There is no dearth of work, only of workers… so it is up to you to step up and choose to follow your career in the realm of animation. Here, too, MAAC will guide you towards the work environment that you prefer.

The Scope Of Animation Is Virtually Endless.



The best thing about animation is that it’s not just limited to one form of media, nor is it only used to create purely animated content.

Animation is applied not only for cartoons, but also in visual effects to create computer-generated characters and moving objects.

And visual effects are used in media ranging from advertisements to TV serials to films and web content. You can create different styles of animation by manipulating the number of frames in every second of action to create stop-motion.

Feature films like Fantastic Mr. Fox and Kubo and the Two Strings were created using traditional stop motion, which used actual models that are manipulated physically and captured on camera. Conversely, films like The Emperor’s New Groove and Warner Bros.

The Iron Giant are full animated, meaning each of the 24 frames in one second’s footage of the films is drawn. Also, there are films like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Space Jam, which combine animation with live-action.





So then, what are you waiting for? Jump into the fray and start building your career as an animator today!

With MAAC Chowringhee | Rashbehari | Kakugachi by your side, and the bright future that the industry holds, you simply can’t go wrong!

Animation has already established its footprint in advertisement industry.

It is quite common these days that animation is getting recognized in every industry.

Animation is widely being used as substitute for costly film stars and it also provides as option for generating imaginative scenarios related with theme.



For example the Zoozoo in Vodafone advertisement got famous because of its unique advertise theme.

It was so popular that Vodafone Telecom Company was getting recognized by its representative mascot ZooZoo.

It is also to be noted that even giant companies such as Google, Apple and Facebook are also using animation to describe new updates.

It is good to notice how Google maps use the animation to explain the latest updates and trends in its technology.

Facebook also advertised its reactions update through the animation.

It explains different emotions such as happiness, sadness, aww, humor, love, etc through it.

Advertisement is the one feature of the product that attracts the audiences to itself.

It describes the products information in an entertaining way.

That is how the audiences get attracted towards it. For promoting any product it is very important for the company to popularize the product among the viewers so that they can buy them.

The customer will remember the advertise when buying the product from shop. The more unique the ad is, it easy for the customers to remember it.

Animation provides this feature of making an ad creative unique.

Animation creates the world and environment that could not be regenerated within real world or it might be very costly to make it.

Animation in advertisement is getting popular as the cost is less and outcome it more.

In today’s blog we will  discuss about such ads. These ads have made their mark in the advertisement industry.

Fanta



Fanta is a popular drink.

Fanta advertisement of animated characters that was shown on tv in 2011 was very popular.

That features a girl, and a boy, and a dog’s animated character. It was very much famous at that time and helped to increase the fanta sales.

Advertisements make a huge difference. Although we all know that this is not a best available orange drink product but the ad makes drinking fanta more fun and customers tends to buy this products.

Frooti



We all remember the ad “Mongo frooti fresh and juicy”.

The latest frooti advertisement that stars Shahrukh Khan and some humans is a famous ad and has new lyrics to it “suck it, and lick it”.

In this ad Shahrukh Khan is shown tracking the frooti that makes us feel like frooti is so good that even Shahrukh Khan loves to drink it and the minute he tastes it everything becomes colorful.

The frootie done the rebranding by using the animation in commercials.



Amul




We all are familiar with the Amul girl saying utterly butterly delicious.

Amul is one of the leading companies in dairy industry.

By four decades amul has kept the amul girl as its brand ambassador.



The amul girl was previously in 2d format but they decided to make it 3d format.

Amul has not changed the advertisement theme and has kept the amul butter girl in the ad but she is seen taking the kids to colourful world of dream and fantasy.

Which indeed make the advertisement attractive and interesting?

Duracell




Everyone knows the duracell bunny.

Because of the bunny that is the fluffy soft rabbit shown in the ad as toy that runs on duracell battery.

The ad comments that the duracell battery has long life as compared to other batteries.



This has been picturised as different bunny using different battery is racing and at the end the bunny with duracell wins.

Duracell bunny advertisement has made a mark in the advertisement industry. It became so popular that even the latest duracell advertises features the bunny itself.

Cadbury Dairymilk




You must have seen the latest cadbury ad of aliens.

These aliens are dancing on the song “intersteller party”. The concept is pretty cute and cool.

The music of song is good and the aliens dancing on the song makes it more entertaining.

The commercial has very nice concept, Cadbury is too good that when the aliens taste it, they become fan of it and dance in joy.

So we have seen some examples of advertises that has used animation in it.

Animation is used in every field of entertainment so how advertisements can can escape from it.

Using animation in commercials has given an additional plus point to it.

It not too far that animation will be ruling the entertainment industry. The best part is it is attractive fun filled to watch and of course cost effective too.

Top 5 Advanced Acting Tips For Animators

In animation industry, clarity of communication is must in order to effectively tell a story & keep the audience engaged to their best. In our blog today we will discuss some advanced acting tips for aspiring animators.

In order to connect the audience with the film on an emotional level, the characters must be lively.

The character must think & move on their own, and be visually & audibly clear at the same time.

All this poses a challenge for the animator as he/she prepares to execute a shot. That is why in this post, we bring you five of the most important advanced acting tips for animators.

Simplify

Every once in a while we find animators trying to push in more information than is really needed in the character.

For example, there is no need for the character to always move.

Sometimes the moments of stillness in juxtaposition to the movement can bring out the beauty of a shot.

In the shot from Ratatouille when Alfredo Linguini goes to throw away Remy in the river is a good example of how to simplify a shot.




Acting Within The Pose


The above video is also a good example of acting within the pose. In the video, the character truly uses only two poses.

The character’s level of engagement & emotional state should be the only criteria for a pose to change.

It is not necessary to schedule a pose change just because there is a new emphasis in dialogue.

Remember, it is the thought that determines action, not the dialogue itself.



Emotional Hang Time

Think of a character who is feeling one emotion, but it starts feeling something different because something occurred in the shot, it needs to process the thought before the change of emotion can occur.

This lag time is known as the emotional hang time, and is crucial in a shot.

In the following image beginning from time frame 2:09, watch Chef Skinner transform from one emotion to the next, with a very readable thought processing time before changing to the next emotion.




The way your character moves will tell the audience a lot about its personality.

To conjure up your character’s ‘natural pose’ it is always a good idea to take inspiration from real world characters, and then exaggerate the selected traits.

This technique has been used by every great animator, from Walt Disney to Tex Avery.

In the following video, watch Buzz Lightyear get trapped in ‘Spanish mode’ & dance Flamenco.


Dynamic Facial Posing

All great animators know that line of action is essential to the creation of dynamic body poses.

The emphasis of line of action, along with shoulder line & hip line, make the pose look more lively, rather than static.



It is a good idea to take some life drawing classes to learn dynamic facial posing.

Learning acting for animation is a crucial step towards building a career as an animator.

Being guided & trained by experts can make all the difference between an amateur & a professional.

Make sure that you enroll with an animation institute with a good reputation & trained faculty so that your dream of becoming an animator can become a reality.

Cool Tips For Newbie’s To Work In An Animation Industry First Time


  We will guide you how you will conduct yourself once you grab your first studio job in animation industry in animation studios.
So now that you have completed your course, and landed with your initial job where you are enterprising enough to induce yourself

Either way, operating as a new comer in animation studio totally different from the regular job in a multinational company.

All the speculation cannot prepare you for the particular demands of the duty. During this we offer you a guide to how can you conduct yourself in animation studio for the primary time. After all, it’s best to be as ready as possible.






Is This Job Full Of Fun?

Yes, it is, and no, it is not. Before you get too confused, let’s make it simpler for you. This is the biggest challenge of working in an animation studio. The studio atmosphere will mostly look like a summer camp.

There will be gossip, casual clothing, planned activities, and snacks fun. But there is also a lot of work to be done at the same time. One works with stipulated dead line.

During your first month on the job, you may be tempted to say a few of these (more than once!) to your Team Leader/ Director:

“This isn’t teaching me anything.”

“This is not part of my job.”

“I don’t know how to do this.”

“I didn’t finish it because it wasn’t important.”

Take our advice; Never say any of these, or anything remotely similar to these. Your first day could become your last in the team. Working in animation studio is not directly connected with your own personal interest; you are there to be a part of a team, and a project where one needs to work together.

Always remember, you are the newest member of the team, and you have to prove your worth and value as a team member.

Make every second count. No one in the team should have any doubt about whether you deserve to come back the next day or not. Instead of looking for fun, look for what more can you do to help the team to succeed.

Hold The Key



No one is indispensable. But that does not mean that you can’t try. After all, can you imagine Pixar without John Lasseter? No you cannot.

Each day will be different while working in an animation studio. Each day will bring new experiences, with new obstacles. And then there would be days when you will hold the key.

Unless you complete your job correctly & effectively, the project cannot move ahead. Make sure that you are the best person for the job. Being under the spotlight can prove to be a lot of pressure.

But concentrate on the bright side. This can be your chance to prove your price.

Do your best, so next time somebody must get employment done, your name is that the initial to appear on.

Presentation Matters



Working in animation studio could be a team effort. Therefore, everyone seems to be perpetually making an attempt to search out the proper set of individuals to have faith in.

Knowing your job, and doing it right, might not be enough.

You further ought to be a people’s person; somebody they will come back to for discussions, rather than somebody scare them away.

All this small small approach can build a large difference in the outlook.

Keep your work station clean. It should not be be chaotic however it shouldn’t be messy.

You are to grasp wherever every factor is, and the way it fits the complete image.

Dress for the occasion. Nobody expects you to be wearing a suit, however dress well. Nobody likes a sloppy dresser.

Whether meeting the team or the chief executive officer or the shopper, you should make an impression.

After all, casual is good, but this is not your friend’s birthday party.

Act Your Age.



Being funny is not equal to being childish. Having fun or sharing a joke is fine, but don’t be the joker all the time.

Making other people aware of your presence by being loud or weird is not appreciated at work place. Your work should be enough to get you noticed, without these extra efforts.

Punctuality is important. You can have a million excuses like a bad traffic jam or the pesky landlord. But a late person usually is not trusted with important conversations & responsibilities.

The creative industry works on the rule, “everything needs to be completed yesterday”. To keep up the pace, plan everything in advance, and be on time.

Present your work with care. You always get the treatment that you give others. The same applies to your work.

If you don’t care about or respect your work, no one will. Don’t expect people to guess the details or understand your ideas magically.

Present them in a proper manner so that it is easy to understand. Even a small thing like spell checking your texts before sending can go a long way in establishing the accuracy of your work.

No dirty linen in public. You may be facing a personal crisis or you may not be getting along with a particular person at work.

Don’t create a scene. And don’t interfere in other people’s affairs. If people don’t respect you, then the brilliance of your work will only take you so far.

Each member of a team is the face of the team.

Being the most recent member you cannot shirk responsibility. Your behaviour and angle can replicate on the name of the team. Confirm that your behaviour provides nobody a chance to raise a finger.

You don’t wish to become the ‘problem’ department – the one whose delays square measure met with scorns, whose issues square measure met with eye rolls.

Ask  Proper Queries



You don’t invariably have all the answers. It’s alright to own queries. However you would like to understand that raised question is valid or not. Before you raise your enquirers to some other person, raise yourself the subsequent questions:
Can I solve this  on my own?

Is this question high priority within the current order of things?

Is this the proper person to answer the question?

Your answers will determine whether you should ask the question or not.

Following-Up Could Be A Talent & Skill Too



During the daily course of your work, you’ll have to be compelled to move not solely along with your own team members however can jointly with members of alternative groups. Once assigned a task that needs such coordination, it’s your responsibility to envision it to the top.

Answers like, “he/she has not responded” or “he/she is delaying the job” square measure unacceptable. Prosperous completion of a task is the maximum amount your responsibility because the alternative person. Blame game can solely hamper the project.

Follow-up frequently, while not being enterprising or high-and-mighty. Monitor the progress of the work however don’t breathe down the person’s neck.

It’s Actually No Fun. Now What?
