Hi hocakes,
You would be using Spaces to have different desktops and separation of apps. Let's go over what specifically you will be doing.
So for starters, create the multiple spaces that you need for your setup. You do that by opening Mission Control and then click on plus(+) button in the upper right hand corner.

Start with the first space and open the apps for web browsing, and animation creation. Right Click on the app to bring up the shortcut menu, click Options, then click Assign To This Desktop. Then just repeat with the other apps and spaces. Take a look at the article below for more information.
