I would suggest making a more skill based resume and tailor to the job you want. Since you're in 3D animation you have to tell the employer the skills and projects that would benefit them. Here's my comments for changes:

  • Remove the objective at the top
  • Highlight work skills and accomplishments you want to be noticed.
  • Create a projects area to talk about notable work and achievements.
  • Use the skills area to list in bullet point things like MS Office, Autodesk, etc.
  • Cascade sections and add more bullet points in your descriptions.

    Here's some resources I suggest looking into:
     

  • Jobscan
    Make sure your resume is ATS (Applicant Tracking System) friendly so recruiters and HR can find and access your resume easily. Try and find keywords and skills from specific job postings to add when you're doing this too. Also don't submit pdfs or image documents for online applications make sure they're word.
  • Knock'em Dead Resumes
    Good resource for resumes.
  • LinkedIn Showcase your skills, projects, and experience. Build a network with alumni and people you know.

     

    Here's how I would organize the resume:

  • Education
  • Work Experience
  • Projects
  • Portfolio
  • Skills
