The area of animation i would like to get into is character animation. In this area would i need to know how to rig a character for animation? Maybe, whether or not you end up working in a small or big studio. Sometimes they will have their own riggers but sometimes you will have to do that yourself, so knowing how to rig would be a plus. In my portfolio is it best to creat an animation which is continuous... That would not be a good thing. It's better to show a variety of small clips. long a portfolio should be? Around 2 minutes would be ok. As for the logo. Maybe you can use a more dramatic pose. For example the guy leaning forward would show that he is showing interest or something like that. Neutral poses are not always good.
