Interviewer: Hello Maneesha! How are you?

Maneesha: Hello Sir! I’m good. Thank you.

Interviewer: Glad to hear that! So, tell me something about yourself.

Maneesha: Sir, I have completed my graduation in Animation and Visual Effects from the National Institute of Design (NID). I have three years of experience in 2D and 3D animation, character design, and motion graphics. I am proficient in software like Maya, Blender, Cinema 4D, and Adobe After Effects. I have a deep interest in creative design and storytelling, and my goal is to create engaging and impactful animated content.

Interviewer: Very good! Can you tell us about some major animation software?

Maneesha: Yes, Sir. I use Maya, Blender, and Cinema 4D for 3D modeling and animation. Adobe After Effects and Toon Boom are used for 2D animation and motion graphics. Additionally, ZBrush is used for high-detailed character modeling.

Interviewer: Excellent! Can you tell us about a significant project you worked on?

Maneesha: Yes, Sir. I recently worked on an animated advertisement where I had to design a character and give it realistic movements. I first created sketches, then did 3D modeling and rigging in Blender. We optimized the rendering for a smooth final animation. This project helped me gain a deeper understanding of production pipelines and teamwork.

Interviewer: Very good! If you find that a character’s animation is not smooth, how would you fix it?

Maneesha: Sir, first, I would check the animation graph and smooth out the keyframes. I would adjust the in-between frames to create better transitions. Additionally, I would refine the timing and easing functions to make the movement look more natural.

Interviewer: If a team member makes a mistake, how would you handle it?

Maneesha: Sir, I would first try to understand the reason for the mistake and help my team member correct it. I would take the mistake as a learning opportunity and encourage a collaborative environment so that we can all improve our skills.

Interviewer: Very good, Maneesha! I appreciate your technical knowledge and problem-solving skills. Best of luck!

Interviewer: That’s all for now. Please wait outside for the result.

Maneesha: Thank you, Sir.
