⢠Illustration (hand-drawn and digital)
⢠Motion Graphics
⢠Other scripting knowledge: Java(Script), ASP, PHP, Ruby, XSL (Note: you will not be expected to code in these, but itâs a strong benefit if you can talk to them in regards to flash integration)

⢠Papervision3d
⢠Basic 3D modeling knowledge
⢠Programming for Mobile Devices
⢠Familiarity with Version Control Software (CVS, subVersion, etc)

⢠Appreciation of Charlie the Unicorn (see YouTube)
What to bring to your interview:
⢠Anything that shows of your skills, and ability to think things through (web designs, banners, games, wireframes, FLAs to show coding samples, print designs, chicken-scratched ideas that never seen the light of day, etc.)
⢠We are aware that often the final end product is watered down due to legal, client mandates, etc. â so feel free to bring first versions of your designs, or personal pieces that best represent your original vision.
⢠Be prepared to talk to why you approached things the way you did.
⢠Looking forward to meeting you.
