Anime News Network's Justin Sevakis has posted a must read column about what it really takes to break into the anime industry. Here is a tiny excerpt.
Actually, the better question is, DO I recommend working in the anime business at all? For most people, probably not. Like a lot of the entertainment industry, people perceive working in the anime business to be, well, glamorous. Whenever someone posits that thought to an actual guy working in the industry, they usually start laughing uncontrollably. The truth is, the anime business is hard, and pays very poorly, even compared to other entertainment jobs.
This is a must read column as Justin blows apart many of the myth's about the industry that has developed over time.
