Job I Would Like To Do
1. Project Title: Outcome 3 – PC (a) Candidate Name: Rae Clarke Class: DMC 1 Job Title Chosen: Animator Why did you choose this job: I choose this job as I would love to create a character or background for a film or game that everyone will see. Also it would be pretty awesome to see it on the big screen and say “I did that”. I really enjoy drawing up characters for people, I do regular drawings for a friend who does a newsletter and he is always impressed with the results, so I feel that with the right training and courses that I will be able to make a career out of it. What makes you think you could do this job: I think I can do this job as I am very imaginative, creative and artistic. I am always drawing up new characters, or modifying old ones. I have reasonable knowledge of working on computers, but there is always room for improvement. I am currently doing a qualification in Digital Media Creation, and I am really enjoying it. So hopefully if I get my head down and work hard, I will get onto the higher levels, so I can be a great animator.
