You're Not A 3D Artist. You're a 3D Problem Solver. You get asked for something by a client. You then get to work on how to create it.
We get asked to do things and we figure it out.
In your career, you will be given models, files, drawings, footage, or scripts from all over the place. You need to work out how to get it into software, create it, render it, use it, composite it or send it... We are problem solvers. That's the job.
It's not just knowing how to do things. It is knowing how to solve what is thrown at you. How do you get better at solving what is thrown at you? Experience
How do we get experience? By creating a solution to a problem.
When you have solved multiple problems (solutions) you get experience.
Jobs won't always be easy.
Having experience will make them easier.
Experience is just having solved more problems.
Go solve some problems 😊
