  Obviously, the role requires someone with an abundance of creativity and imagination. The designer will need to conceptualize innovative ideas and of course bring something original to the table.

  On a more pragmatic level, the designer needs to show flexibility as they will have to deal with changing client demands and project goals. An attention to detail is essential, as design elements are important for interactive or animated projects. Other skills include problem-solving; clear and effective communication for presenting ideas and collaborating with clients and team members; and the desire to learn about design trends, cultural movements, and technological advances.

  Software and tools will naturally change over time, but for now a multimedia designer will need proficiency in software such as Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects). For those candidates working in 3D, knowledge of tools like Blender, Maya, or Cinema 4D can be a distinct advantage.
