Second job: animator!
Animator, animation artist or cartoon-maker is a lesser-known but attractive job title that among creative young people has many fans but little labor market.
Animators can be hired in various cases. Theatrical and advertising animations and also video games are among the platforms in which animators are hired. The number of theatrical animations in the country is of course very small; one or two cases a year!
The chart's numbers well indicate the small number of the country's animators, and in almost all years the number of part-time employed has also been greater than full-time; that is, animation work is mainly a part-time job whose workers are probably engaged in other jobs. Of course, the small number of those employed can also mean intense competition in this market.
From this chart it can be concluded that, provided a market is made available, the animation industry is a pristine field for the entry of interested and creative young people.
