These roles can include tasks such as assisting with animation projects, storyboarding, character design, or learning animation software. They are often hosted by animation studios, educational programs, or summer camps, providing valuable networking opportunities and practical skills. Such experiences can help participants build a portfolio and better understand the animation production process.
