"In terms of opportunities and amount of work available, there is no better time to be working as an animator than today. More new avenues for animated content are springing up than ever before. For decades, the choices were straightforward: TV, features, commercials, music videos, and shorts. Today those limited number of options have been upended as every form of media and creative practice is somehow incorporating animation into its sphere."
"One area in which animation will play an increasingly meaningful role is publishing.
While there have been a number of iPhone/iPad “animated” books, most have been of a simplistic variety requiring users to flip a “page” to watch a linear animated sequence. The next generation of children’s books will integrate animation in non-linear ways to create an entirely new and unique storytelling experience."
