I NEED HELP FINDING MY IDEAL JOB Anonymous 2017-07-20 12:34:43 Post No. 18536365 [Report]

Ok, so I will TRY and keep this short.

I've been looking for a career path. I'm gonna be 23 soon. I have this idea of a simple, obtainable job that doesn't have to make me rich, just keep me afloat. I dropped out of college once already and fear going back for the same reason. I'm extremely interested in working in some form of animation (wake up, go to a cubicle, create characters/worlds in 3D or 2D on some shitty tablet). I guess you could say I want to be part of a game/animation dev team, but primarily as an artist. I know 2D animation and most other software such as Photoshop, Vegas, etc.

If I start college now, ill be out by the time im 27 (which is ok I guess)

Time, and finding the correct college/path to take to bring me to this goal have been driving me fucking crazy.

I'm reaching my mid 20's and it's starting to scare me. I want to find some kind of career that I can do all day without an issue, and I'm fully convinced that would be some form of digital art.

I seriously need some advice. I'm working an ok job right now that makes me ok money, it's just not a "solid" job.

I'm willing to take any advice

Extra points if you work a job like this already and can tell me how you got there

Thanks guys

Best I can do is to build a portfolio and ask someone to sit down and make your knowledge marketable on a resume. Youll just need something to show for it. If youre that good then youll get picked up but without a degree dont expect to be making more than what you do now. All else fails the military has graphic design jobs. Reserve bonuses are through the roof. As a graphic designer in the military I will never see combat ( unfortunately). Youll come out with a cert and a shit ton of marketable experience

I'm from New York, I cant find much work that is willing to hire without a degree. I think I will try college again, I'm just worried it wont help much. A military graphic design job is a really interesting route to take, I didn't even that was a thing.
