Ara, I read this gigantic saga and since the begining I agree with you. I think people should specialize in doing what they can do best, and I guess the only reason why that is not happening is because the "Art" (I consider it a form of art) is so new and young. I just love to do everything, but what I really enjoy is to apply textures and play with light effects. Yes, I do believe somebody could model and animate a project and send it to another person to apply the light, just like in movies or plays, the director doesn't take care of everything. If he needs somebody to create scenes, he hires a specialized person. If he needs light effects, he hires another person, and so on. And I also have a hard time describing myself: am I a Computer Graphics Artist, or a modeler, or an animator, or what? People from inside the trade understand what I mean when I call myself a modeler, but what about the clients, that know nothing about it? They usually say "what, a modeler, what do you mean?" Specialize, YES! Better names, YES! Eni
