Some colleges, including University of Limerick, are running animation courses. Are the graduates not being funnelled into animation per se? I was at an event recently that was attended by a company called ICON, which develops a lot of training using Oculus Rift. It gets animators to do all the internal work for medical training. Is it the case that some animators are being diverted into this area rather than into the type of work Mr. Gaffney is doing?
