Can one person do it all?

Hi,

I'm new. Not just to the forum, but all of this in general. I've been practicing modeling for about a month now and learning various other things because at some point I would like to make my own 3D animated videos but the more I learn, the more daunting this seems. To accomplish this I have be a concept artist, modeller, texture artist, rigger, animator, sculptor, writer, musician, effects artist, etc ... its all very intimidating. And while I do have help in some departments it isnt nearly enough.

So my question is ... should I give up? Is this an impossible task? Is there some way to make this easier? I'd love to be able to hire someone but I'm a student and I've seen environment artist charge as much as $5,000 for a small town. Needless to say I dont have that type of money.

Is anyone else attempting to go at it alone? Do you have any advice for someone like me? I'd very much appreciate it.

Could you climb a mountain???

Could you climb a mountain???

Serious question, asked seriously.

If you feel confident that your own two feet could take you to the top of any mountatin in front of you, then why should animation seem impossible?

YES, it IS daunting. YES, it is intimidating.  YES, there's a lot of steps and a LOT to do. Yes, it takes time. A LOT of time.
YES, IT IS HARD TO DO.

So is climbing a mountain on foot.

How do you climb a mountain?
One foot in front of the other, one step at a time.
Same thing for animation.
