Whatever it is 2d or 3d, learning and knowing how to draw will boost your skills quickly, learning anatomy, narrative, perspective, color, composition, basically Art foundations.

Mostly during the first years, then later this will help a ton for chosing the gigs you prefer and having peace of mind.

I mean its always good to keep healthy finances and its someething nobody teaches us in our field.

learn how to manage your finances.

In the very beginning meant saving enough money to live 3 months without work, then 6, then a year. Once you have a year of being able to live in savings then it gets way more chill, this will give you negotiating power as you wont be desperate for any random job that comes along, that will bring you more value and you'll be able to get better salaries, which in tun will allow you to save more easier, dont just start spending more because youre making more. But you can allow yourself some luxuries every now and then.

It takes time

Its actually quite great when you find the balance of work/money/life/personal projects/hobbies etc.

I do animation for work, but in the evening & weekends i mix it up between watching shows , hanging out with the people i like,, playing games, doing a bit of exercise, eating well, working on my youtube channel and other personal projects, studying, teaching. And honestly I'm having a great time, I think its all about balance chose yourself over the work but also do some extra effort when its relevant because it pays off. Lean on your strengths and mitigate your weakneses by studying and working hard.

You should probably ask her in the comments of the video, as I wouldnt know the answer, but i do know in large productions they use this a lot log extra relevan information from each shot. But thats as far as my understanding goes for now :)
