Question
Hi I'm a 15 I'm incredibly talented at drawing I starting college. but I find it
hard to learn new skills in Wales because you have very limited places you
can learn I look at different books and resarch things on the Internet and  I
practise drawig every  Day .but it is my life ambition to become an animator I
hope to work at dreamworks studios  one day could you give me advice and
tips of getting there.

Answer
Hi Joshua,

The best thing to do would be to get in touch with Dreamworks Animation Human Resource Department and find out what their portfolio requirements are, then make your portfolio and send them a copy.

Different studios have different requirements.


Hope this helps.
