Could anyone also tell me what software I should learn if I would:
-Want to be a modeler
-Want to be an animator

Are there any other 3d artist jobs?
Also i've decided that after being kind of intermediate in all fields, I won't stay a generalist. I've been looking at VFS showreels and the comments and an instructor said: Studios are not looking for a hotshot generalist to employ, they're looking for a specified 3d artist that makes unbelievable work in his/her field.
I'm really tempted to become a modeller, but atm i'm not a real good drawer nor a sculptor. Though i'm already learning to draw.


I was thinking about the software I should use:
For Modeler:
-Maya (or Softimage XSI)
-ZBrush or Mudbox
-Adobe Photoshop
-Adobe Premiere Pro
-(Adobe After Effects?- not sure)

For Animator:
-Maya
-Adobe After Effects
-Real Flow?
-Adobe Premiere Pro


I guess I don't know sure, so could anyone correct my mistakes and help me add what I am missing? Thanks everyone.
