Maybe that’s the problem, it shouldn’t. You were part of a team making a project, even if you worked by yourself, the work you produce wouldn’t be the same. It’s part of the whole package.

So how would looking at individual frames pieces without context show what you’re capable of? They would need to watch the entire piece anyways.

Good of you to offer to fix an entire industry so that these people can find work. We eagerly await your progress reports.

It would show your ability to frame, your linework, depending on the scene your ability to demonstrate action...

It sounds like you have literally no concept of how animation works at an enterprise level. It often is several different people working on individual scenes that are then stitched together at the end.
