You aced your interview! You can take additional action to further enhance your interviewer’s impression of you by following up with a post-interview thank you email. It’s surprising how few candidates do this, mainly because it’s another opportunity to sell yourself and distinguish yourself from other candidates.
There are several excellent reasons to support your decision to move from graphic design to motion design.
Learning motion design is usually at the top of designers’ to-do list surveys. And that’s a good thing, too: the market is exploding. We see video everywhere – not just on device screens, social media, web videos, and tv/movies; notice the prevalence in retail store displays, museums and attractions, sports and music events, bus stop kiosks, supermarket checkout lines, and even highway billboards. Also, brands are increasingly expanding their implementation of video in their marketing and branding efforts. Design-wise, we live in a moving world.
You’ve done your homework: your portfolio site looks great, friends and colleagues have reviewed your resume, and your LinkedIn profile is complete – your personal brand marketing tools are ready to deploy! The next step is looking for a job or assignment.
