Who wants to work with anime?
 
Yep, that's right. Its my dream.

I've been passionate about the art styles for a really long time and figured out just what would be the best thing for me to do to get involved.

And it hit me.

Why not become a journalist for an anime magazine? I've loved writing in school and its probably one of my strongest points. Plus, seeing the world and constantly soaking in everything I possibly can about anime and manga. What better calling is there?

So, does anyone else know what they want to do?

i wanna be a voice actor for anime shows

RxPhantomWolf12 08-09-2007 09:07 PM

Most likely a video game developer. Though I suck in Geometry.

Translation!! Learn the Japanese language and start subtitling Anime shows/Jdramas, anything in japanese. Sometimes i think of doing this, or doing it a hobby.

Sakurachan 08-09-2007 09:22 PM

Dream anime jobs...
 
Welll... I'm my sister's editor, but she has yet to finish her manga, so perhaps I'm not cut out for that! I'd *love* to do voice acting, but then, I want to be an actress so... if not, journalism would rock my socks off, like for NewType or something. Then again... I plan on doing an oriental studies degree in two years, so perhaps translation or the like would be cool...

Ah, the Princess Princess subtitles I saw the other day were so bad!!! They were clearly done into English by someone Chinese, because they'd made all the names Chinese or suchlike (e.g. Mikoto > Shiqin), and the English was abysmal. It really bugs me, stuff like that, so maybe i would be suited to it... but is it glamorous enough?? Haha!

Well, if you ever need a writer, I'm here. I'm actually going to try and start a newpaper for the anime club at my school so long as people will read it.

Look, it doesn't really matter if your drawings are too life like. Big deal! There is so much variety out there already that it doesn't matter. And sketching is the base of all manga. Mangaka don't do it on their own ya know. They have to have a staff to help with redefining and color schemes and backgrounds. Its very rare for it to be a one man job.

i can draw anime style but i dont think im very good people say i draw good but im just not sure

Shiningmonkey 08-10-2007 09:08 PM

Yeah, that is my dream. Me and my friend have been working on an anime for years and I am still designing characters and stuff. A lot of the storyline is done though. I hope to have it out within a few years :D.

MuhRamen 08-12-2007 06:06 PM

I think it'd be really fun to be a voiceactor :)

Have you and your crew started animating it yet? That'll take a while...

GamerShojo 08-12-2007 06:20 PM

I want to be a graphics designer for anime style video games if that counts.

Touya 08-13-2007 12:12 AM

I'm in school right now for Video Game Art and Design. Does that count?

kitski 08-13-2007 12:20 AM

Working with anime is a dream that possibly does not come true.I live in a place where a hand full of ppl watch anime.Working with anime in here is definitely not possible.

Good luck on pursuing your dream ThegoldenFox.^^

TheGoldenFox 08-13-2007 03:54 AM

Thanks. I know there are limitations with where I live and that I'll have to work extremely hard to accomplish my goal, but I'll make it there someday. I'm really passionate about what I want to do, and alot of people don't think I'm acting serious. But I know what I'll have to start doing to get to where I want to be so I think it'll be alright.

Just believe in yourself and don't let what others say affect you.

Chounae 08-13-2007 04:03 AM

im a an animator righht now part time any way. and yeah i reckon it would be cool to criticise my own work, how good would that be. so basically thats wot i want to be

what do you animate? Meaning, what are you working on now?

Sakurachan 08-13-2007 09:19 PM

Yo! Chounae!
 
Why not put up a couple of pictures on here and get more opinions? ^^

KoiNoAngel 08-13-2007 09:24 PM

well my dream is to become an animator , or do voice acts , but if thats not possible , i'd like to teach english in japan .Guess my greatest dream is to go to japan and live there...It's ok if i could just do ANYTHING there.
Except prostitution , thats not something for me O_o

Shaelyn 08-13-2007 11:18 PM

my dream job isn't in anime, not by a long shot. it's professionally singing.

wouldn't mind working in anime though...voice acting would be fun.

It is so hard to believe in myself.I have all these dreams about going to japan and about working there but im afraid that im too chicken to act on those dreams.Just like u, so do i know what to do to get there but its risky what if i fail.I guess i have to boost my confidence up somehow.Thanks for the advise.
