I must admit, as a student it can be extreamly hard to find your own style when you've grown up with disney and started drawing anime when you were younger, so much of it is influenced your drawings. When I started doing my portfolio for tafe and uni applications, I spent for ages trying to improve and change my style but now that I have changed, I agree how staying to one style can really be a burdern for this industry. <BR/><BR/>thanks for the words Karl, I'm gonna have to keep them in mind ^__^Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10146157214072059819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30997462.post-63683410085609298082008-05-15T19:24:00.000+10:002008-05-15T19:24:00.000+10:00This is very true.

The problem is we simply don’t have the time to sit and bring them up to the level that we need them to be so we can plough through the work and create something of quality in time for the deadline. It’s a bit tricky; I think it does depend on where the studio is at when you apply. <BR/><BR/>However one thing that does grab my attention when going through showreels is if the animator/illustrator shows diversity. It gives me a sense that they are trying different ideas, styles, or ways of approaching a piece of interest. Locking yourself into an anime, or Disney, or Tim Burton type animator/illustrator is going to seriously limit your field and make studios wonder if that is all you can do. Define yourself by your craft and not your genre. <BR/><BR/>For me it looks like the individual can catch up quickly weather by our help or by finding tutorials or books. Point is they show initiative in their work and subsequently should in their learning.Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04034058019398152311noreply@blogger.com
