What recruiters actually look for
3D animator hiring wants body mechanics and polish passes. Show blocking → polish. Wasted effort: asset flips with no animation craft. Studio and campus screens still reward ownership stories over tool-logo lists. Bring one artifact — case study, prototype, lookbook page, or critique notes — you can defend in depth.
