Computer animation jobs are in high demand because there are more and more video games coming out each year. Plus most people don't know how to program.
Most likely computer graphic arts and animation, maby some physics, so you can understand what the reactions to certain things might be.
There are many computer animation languages. The most common one is C++ or C# by Microsoft.There is also the Maya Embedded Language (MEL) which is used in Maya.Then there is Python which you can download free from the Internet. Python is used in many free visual software, namely Blender.
One can get a computer animation education at a local community college, as software design and animation is very popular currently, and there are most likely many classes available to take. If there are not, one can try looking at MIT OpenCourseWare.
well, you could always go to Texas a&m and study design or technology, then go to Westwood in Dallas for bachelors. most Disney Pixar people went there. (atleast i think, but most likely.)
Not really, although there was animation used. Most of Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow was shot with human actors in front of a green screen, with the scenery, flights, sets, etc. added in afterward via computer graphics.

There are several reasons why this may be happening, but they most likely all come down to one answer. For most .gif format pictures to actually run as animation, they have to be opened with a program that allows them to be played eg: Adobe Fireworks. Most likely you're trying to view the .gif with a program that does not support it's animation
If you have internet access try Ninjaproxy.com or ninjacloak.com as these will let you bypass most school firewalls.
Computer animation is one of the most CPU-intensive operations. Basically you're making the CPU do a lot (a LOT) of calculations on pixels, often millions of them at the same time. Naturally, for doing such an operation, the faster the CPU execution speed the better.
Animation could be used for simulations in elearning materials. To make animation small enough to be quickly transmitted over the internet , most animation is done in Flash.
