Animation help: Does anybody know - Help.com

None, just talent is required.

Same for most jobs in the artistic/technical realm.

cool thanks i can’t draw anything but cartoons and i really wanted to be in animation so cartoon animator seems about right :)

Your tags listed career. If you want to be a professional animator, then you may want to go into computer animation. While talent and passion will be your prime method of success, you will have to consider college and getting a degree in the field. We are moving past the day where talent and drive alone is enough. Unless you know the right people, or are in the right place at the right time - a degree is necessary in this day and age. Further some of the giants, like Pixar and ILM hire from their pool of interns (that would be college interns).
