Hi Ifraz,


The best way is to develop your drawing and painting skills by practicing as much as possible. Second you should go to school for a formal education in illustration and possibly animation which teaches you the effective communication of story and film fundamentals. Finally they are looking for a creative mind with problem solving skills that enable you to create a believable world that one could imagine themself in. Work very hard because it is very competitive. Good Luck!


-Jens
