If you want to learn 3d animation, you'll also need to learn the best ways to set up your 3d file for a smooth and efficient workflow. There are a number if things you can do when you first open either Maya, Blender or 3DS Max that will really help you when animating. There are certain settings you should use or set as soon as you open your file - things like frame rates and timelines, camera settings and save settings - and ways to work like importing vs referencing your assets and rigs , that will have a huge impact on your efficiency as an animator.
If you're new to animation, a beginner or just something who is trying to become a self taught animator, these tips will probably help you out in learning how to become a 3d animator by streamlining your 3d file setup.

Version Control and cloud backups! Not only useful for software engineering but if your computer decides to through a tantrum and have hardware malfunctioning, you'll be glad you've made a backup online. Dedicate a folder (Dropbox has that feature) on on your computer to sync your automatic saves. As your 3d app make automatic backups, you have incremental copies online. You can save on online storage by making use of version control. Git/Subversion will "save over" the original file but it will contain previous saves/changes as saves are synced online. If you messed up or the file becomes a problem, you can roll back and load prior versions of the save. Just do make sure your backup solution is in fact actually backing up daily/weekly or your chosen time. *edited - expanded a bit and fixed typos*

That looked like a fun break! Fun video Robyn. I think a lot of people would benefit from program-specific videos, especially Blender users :) Cannot stress autosave enough! Even with it turned on, get in the habit of hitting Ctrl + S regardless, you never know when your next crash could be, & nothing crushes motivation more than losing something that was tedious to do! As per the framerate, does anyone know if there's a way to change Maya's default framerate? I'm usually animating at 30fps & have to change it from 24 everytime I start a new file. Very annoying.

Thanks Skitty! Yeah it was super fun! I think you're right, I will do program-specific ones too. Yeah, autosave is a huge life saver. I used to lose huge chunks of work and sometimes just feel like giving up when I was still a newbie and didn't remember to set it. For the frame rate issue you're having, have you tried setting it in the File -> New Scene options then clicking apply? I set mine there and it stayed the same setting each time I started a new file/ scene after that.

So I have this question, and it may feel too personal, or it may be really inappropriate. Also you are free not to answer it and I will understand it. Also I would very much like to know the answer and if it is too private feel free not to answer it... So, does that doughnut behind you has eyes?

For a while I saw everything with a wireframe over it when I was doing a lot of 3d modeling so I can relate! 😅 Now whenever someone is moving I'm analyzing their key poses and wondering if their acting is convincing or feels too stiff 😂
