Illustrators (including Animators) plan, design, develop, and prepare pictures and diagrams to communicate messages, clarify meaning, assist in presentations and illustrate stories, using traditional and digital media such as drawing, painting, drafting, collage, models, photography, and image capture and manipulation software.
You usually need a bachelor degree or a diploma in graphic arts, visual arts, animation or another related field to work as an Illustrator (including Animator). Putting together a portfolio might help you showcase your skills.
