How long would it take to hone your drawing skills?

Hi! I'm a female 16-year-old 11th grader, and I have a big interest in character/concept designing for cartoons/videogames. How long does it usually take to master and be confident in drawing human figures and landscapes? And how difficult is it to create a new and creative concept? What personally motivates you to draw? Thank you for your time. #character-design #concept-design #cartoons #video-games #drawing #art

What do video game companies look for when hiring their programmers? Is a bachelor's in computer science good enough?

So I want to program video games for a career and I'm already majoring in computer science and trying to learn a little about video game programming through Unity but I'm worried that there'll be a lot of extra hoops I have to jump through before I look hire-able. So I want to know what not just what I can do to stand out in the hiring process but also what video game companies expect to be common knowledge when hiring their programmers. Thanks! #programming #computer-programming #video-games #video-game-programming #computer-science #interviews

Wanna get into the gaming industry as an animator without a college degree if possible

Hi, I was wondering if anyone had an answer to my question. So basically I'm in college for digital animation as a freshman and I'm thinking about dropping out to just pursue animation purely and not do other courses. I love animating and it's really enjoyable and I would love to learn more. But my main question is can I get a job in the gaming industry ranging from AAA companies to indie companies without a college degree and just be self taught as long as I have a really nice portfolio I wanna practice on my own for a couple of years and get better on my own. So is it possible to get a job #computer-animation #nocollege #needhelp #video-games #gaming-industry #computer-gaming

How would you go about gaining video game design education in Missouri?

Every college I look at, online or campus-based, seems to have different terms and classes for this kind of subject. Some have a straight-up "degree of game design" while others seem to put it in an umbrella under things like "electronic arts" or "computer sciences". It's all a bit confusing to remember similarities and differences. #video-games #video-game-design #game-development #computer-games
