Re: disseration survey on ai for games art
Well, I can see how professors would *love* generative AI since it allows them to display the illusion of skill in front of a room of students - as opposed to actually teching them something rooted in their credentials (if any). And that's also ignoring the fact that all implementations of generative AI so far are based on… -
Zbrush - academic license
Hello, this is probably a stupid question but I want to purchase the Zbrush 4r5 student/academic licence but I'm unsure of what type of student I need to be, I'm currently on a level 3 BTEC diploma in ICT/games design (college in UK) but I'm unsure if I have to be a university student or not. Thanks. -
Has anyone gone to 3DSense School in Singapore or Online? Could you share your experiences?
Hello, I am currently searching for an artschool to improve my 2D Concepting/Illustration Skills or my 3D modeling and sculpting skills or both. I've come across 3DSense and it looks quite promising, but I wonder is the cost and effort of migration really worth it? I've been comparing many schools with different online… -
Re: Go indie or uni
If you are rich/very skilled or supported by an understanding family or all of the above then go indie, if not then go to uni and stay true to your indie ideas but while you are under the wings of education use every minute to learn as much as possible and grow your idea at the same time, i.e. adapt every possible brief… -
Re: Article: Games have a place in higher education, but where they are now isn’t working.
Quite a fun article to scroll trough! I am currently in a Game Dev major and I agree with many of the flaws you are pointing out, some of them I have heard from students at other universities and others I have experienced first hand. Many of these points of course depend on what university you attend, for example at mine… -

Re: Rock man Zero
too true, too true. I'm a student myself going for my BA in game art design and I can tell you that in the 3 years I've been there, I've learned a lot... of the basics. Since getting here on polycount and checking out tutorials outside of class I've furthered my knowledge more here in a couple weeks that I usually do all… -
Re: I am in need of some guidence
RawRanator: Hey i came upon the same problem myself about a year ago myself here in San Diego. I plateaued in my learning (from school) and felt like my money was going to waste. I realized that I could get the most for my money if I continued to learn on my own through practice, tutorials, forums etc. while still going to… -

Re: crazybump version to buy?
no, just cheaper =) I would look at it this way, if you're doing 99% non-professional work and you're a student, get the student version!
