I would like to go study a Bachelor's degree in media and arts. My dream is to be an animator or a game designer but I'm not sure if I'll be good enough when I apply to study. I started practicing drawing just about 3 months ago. I know it sounds weird but I really want to do that for a living already. Of course my plans could change tho. I'm 16 and I started studying in high school a few months ago so there's still almost 3 years to go. If then I'm still interested in drawing I'd like to go study for bachelor's degree in media and arts. To apply I need to submit a "pre-task" which will be rated pass/fail. So my question is, do you think I'll have the skills needed to create a good enough artwork to be able to study for a Bachelor's degree in media and arts? I have 3 years to practice but is that enough? (My current drawing skills are pretty terrible and I don't usually learn new stuff quickly. I don't have natural talent in drawing but I enjoy it a lot.)

@Jeemeli,
Do you have a school counselor to talk to about this?

For sure, you need good computer skills.

A natural talent is preferred, but there are many things you can do in that field.

@Jeemeli,
Do you have art classes at your school or in your home town? They don't have to be in gaming or animation, and it's probably better if they're not. I am talking about anything two-dimensional, such as drawing and painting, as opposed to three-dimensional artwork such as sculpture or pottery.

Learn perspective, how to draw the human body, where the muscles go and how they move. Learn about shadow, tone, tint, and shade. Learn about complementary and opposite colors and how to design things like logos.
