Is it better to work in an industry or as a freelancer?

I plan to do 2D and 3D animation as a career and I heard it was a pretty unstable job which worries me a lot since I want to help my parents financially as soon as possible. I also worry about it for my own good if it will be enough to support me as well financially. #freelance #animation...

will college be enough to prepare me for an animation career?

I heard that most college schools teach the fundamentals of animation which is not enough for the animation industry as I've heard its extremely competitive. Employers will look at my portfolio more than my degree
