She Needs An Emotionally Honest Convo With A Trusted Adult Figure In Her Life STAT

when you go to school for animation you will find that every third person in your classes will say “I want to be a character designer/storyboard artist!” and there’s no problem with that! except that the vast majority of these people don’t realize they don’t actually want to be character designers or storyboard artists. What they WANT to do is draw pretty ocs and dnd characters over and over and not do anything like draw backgrounds or tell stories or make animate-able designs to meet the needs of the production they’re on. And this is fine too! I’m not even saying this to be shady. I’m saying this because so many people don’t even realize how many jobs there are out there that are adjacent to the animation/illustration industries that would be way more fulfilling for people that just want to draw pretty ocs over and over than character design/storyboarding. Sometimes the answer is being involved in a non-art animation role (like production management) and then drawing your friends’ dnd characters on the weekends.

Frankly, my recommendation is just to make short films, and if if’s too overwhelming or you can’t even get enjoyment out of doing character design/storyboarding (or whatever part of the pipeline you’re interested in) on a personal project like that, then you were probably never going to be fulfilled doing it as a job
