Animating the Internet through Web Design
The World (Wide Web) in 3D
Every successful business needs a successful website. Websites that are marked as �good� or high quality almost always incorporate some kind of animation. Internet marketing uses computer animation as its hallmark advertising tool to try and catch the eye of would-be consumers with engaging motion and color.
Web animation used to be a simple consecutive series of GIF images attached to a browser, only a simulation of movement, and predominantly 2D. Now, flash technology is the new standard, composed of self-contained movie files with vector-based graphics and text that run inside of a web browser. The technology is developing and the art expanding, making a career in web design an exciting opportunity for any one interested.
Drawing the Web
Webmasters and web designers are the professionals who create this technology. They are trained in computer animation, 3D modeling, and often hold degrees in web design from accredited universities. Students in web design programs gain all of the essential skills they need to start a career in web design. Web design involves website construction, layout, graphics, and applications, and now computer animation. This recent addition has widened the range of opportunities for more artistic careers in web design.
Bringing your art to the internet could result in a challenging and very exciting career in web design.
