In the animation industry and from speaking to a lot of freelancers. The amount of knowledge that you have can determine whether you get employed. The industry is very competitive and there are those who have been using certain software's for years, in comparison to a graduate. So work experience is a key, most animation studios want a minimum of 1 years of experience. In order to work on a movie most want 7 years experience.
Skills are important because it could mean redundancies. If for example there is someone in the industry who is not up to date with new software. He will have to be sent away on a course, which can be a waist of money or time. So it is important to watch tutorials in your spare time and familiarize ones self. And at the same time people can be replaced.
