Learning Storyboard Pro finally.  Here’s a little class assignment I did recently. Our instructor gave us the audio which we could cut up as we wished, and then pulled a random word to incorporate.  Mine was “Viking”.  I couldn’t come up with a Nordic idea to fit the dialog, so I went with a Minnesota Viking idea.  Main objective was to learn the software tools.  

Hi!  Sorry, I just read your message.  My advice if you’re in college is to seek out a summer internship at one of the studios-ideally the one(s) you want to work for.  Each studio has internships and strong interests in finding new talents.  They probably each have Tumblrs or FB pages to follow so you know when these internships are being offered.  

At your school, make sure to find whomever helps students find those internships.  That person may have contacts with studio people, and your best bet is to make those personal connections as early as you can and make yourself, your work and interests known.  People want to encourage you.  The next part is doing your best to be competitive among other artists your competing with.  So, while you’re in school enjoy that time and do your best.  All that work will pay off.  As far as applying, these days the studios have online portals for jobs.  You can also contact the Animation Union in LA to find job postings.  Though, that may only be available for active union members.  Which school are you attending?
