I wish to pursue a career as a game animator within the gaming industry. I have always been fascinated by the world of video games and the creativity involved in bringing characters and worlds to life through animation. To prepare for this field, I believe that obtaining a degree in animation or game design from a reputable art school or university would be beneficial. Additionally, gaining experience through internships or freelance work in animation would help me develop my skills and build a portfolio that showcases my talent to potential employers.
In terms of funding my education, one realistic way could be to apply for scholarships or grants specifically for students pursuing degrees in animation or game design. I could also consider working part-time while studying to save money and potentially reduce the amount of student loans I would need to take on. As for student loans, I believe I could afford to take on a moderate amount to cover tuition and living expenses, keeping in mind that I will need to repay them once I graduate and secure a job in the industry.
