3-D Animation Question:

Again, with this question the employer is looking to see how well you know yourself as an animator and a candidate. A great tactic when answering this question is to look at the job spec/advert and see which skills they’re looking for which you actually possess – and then be sure to combine these into your answer. For example, if they’re looking for someone who’s a pro with 3D applications such as Maya and ZBrush, if you’re pretty confident with them, you could always name these as your biggest strengths.

With this answer, it’s always a good idea to name a few strengths which reflect your technical ability and some of your softer skills too. For example, you could say that your biggest strengths are your proficiency with Maya and ZBrush and your ability to work well under pressure and to tight deadlines. Why? Because this shows that as well as having technical ability, you also have the softer personality traits which are needed in this kind of role.
